Pets for Pensioners

Here at the sanctuary we understand many people cannot keep pets of their own, for many and varied reasons. We get a lot of calls from older people and people with ill health who need to rehome their pets. It can be devasting for everyone involved. 

This summer we are offering older people who cannot have a pet of their own a chance to just be with animals for a few hours. Whether it is walking, grooming, petting etc. Due to financial and time constraints we cannot invite everyone along. The sessions are pre book only and we ask that you specify your chosen animal at booking so we can manage numbers. Each attendee can bring one guest (carer/family member/friend/etc.) only. Any extra attendees must be booked as extras.

We will be open the following dates for people to attend;

Thursday 4th July 1-3pm

Saturday 20th July 11-1pm & 1-3pm

Thursday 25th July 11-1pm

More dates will be added for August pending the attendance and interest.

We have to limit numbers for safety. We know not everyone will be able to secure a place or will not be able to attend any of the dates but depending on interest we will be adding more dates hopefully.
