More about Ferne Animal Sanctuary
Ferne Animal Sanctuary has been caring for unwanted and abandoned domestic & farm animals for over 75 years. We provide refuge and rehabilitation for over 300 animals on our 72 acre site. We rehome dogs, cats and horses, but most animals will stay with us for the rest of their lives.
Some of the animals come to the Sanctuary because they have been neglected or are no longer wanted. Others arrive when their owners are no longer able to keep them. All these animals are given the attention and TLC they need to enjoy a happy life while they are at Ferne.
Ferne relies entirely on donations to continue its work. Your support will mean this vital work can continue.
Jaspers story
Early one morning Jasper was found tied to Ferne’s gates, freezing cold and very frightened. He was going blind and needed on going attention.
Jasper is just one of the many unwanted animals, to which Ferne gives loving care, a safe home and necessary medical attention.
Help save unwanted animals like Jasper, please donate today.
Donating goods to our charity shops
We welcome donations of unwanted items in good, clean condition to our charity shops.
