Adoption scheme

Adopt one of our residents – it makes a brilliant Birthday, Christmas or Anniversary present. Or adopt for yourself and come down and visit your adopted animal and their friends any day between 10am and 3pm (2pm in Winter). For a donation of £15 we send you a letter from your animal, a personalised certificate and a special photo. All of the adoption money you donate goes towards the day-to-day costs of looking after your horse, pony or donkey (or mule!) If this a present for someone else we can post out to a friend or relative and include a ‘This is a gift from’ card for you

We can't do this on our own

YOU can help make THE difference...
