We are thrilled to offer FREE school trips to Goodheart Farm Animal Sanctuary, made possible through special funding.
Nestled on the picturesque border between Worcestershire and Shropshire, our sanctuary provides a one-of-a-kind setting for pupils to delve into curriculum-based topics such as digestive systems, life cycles, and animal dentition. These hands-on learning experiences not only bring science to life but also inspire a deeper appreciation for animals and their wellbeing.
