Working towards a world where farm animals are given the love, respect and care that they deserve

Welcome to the Farm Animal Sanctuary

Established over 30 years ago, The Farm Animal Sanctuary was the first of its kind in this country. We provide a safe haven for neglected and abused farm animals where they can live out the rest of their lives in comfort while receiving the special care and attention they need. The sanctuary was founded by Jan Taylor, after she witnessed the horrific reality of livestock markets around the country selling sick, malnourished, and frightened animals that were facing certain death or a lifetime of misery. Today we have over 600 happy residents, including sheep, cattle, pigs, ponies and horses, cats, dogs, ducks, geese, hens and cockerels, turkeys and alpacas! Our vital work would not be possible without your help. We welcome support through sponsorship, events, farm visit and donations. To find out how you can get involved, please read on.

JustGiving campaign to purchase the Farm

They arrive with us in a damaged state. We restore their life to them. We made a promise to our animals that Manor Orchard Farm would be their everlasting home, and we intend to uphold that promise.

To make this happen, we need YOUR help.
