Pet and Farm Animals

Volunteering is rewarding, yet can be quite demanding, we need people who are both reliable and dependable, who are willing to work hard outside in all weathers. In return you should enjoy your time with us, amongst friends and amazing animals.

What does a typical day look like?

Times – We need volunteers to come early around 8am (no later than 9am. There are tasks later in the day, but much of the hard work getting animals ready in the morning would have needed to be complete.

Most of the critical tasks are from early morning and are completed by midday, we need volunteers who can arrive around 7- 8am and certainly no later than 9am.

Whilst some people prefer to help at weekends, others help in the week. Most help is required in the mornings when animals need to be fed and cleaned out, but there are other tasks later in the mornings in the week.
