For the last 80 years Ferne has been providing care and refuge for unwanted and abandoned animals in the South West of England. Located in Somerset we are home to over 300 long-term residents, and rehome cats and dogs within a 40 mile radius.

Story

While we are fortunate to be able to harvest our own hay at the sanctuary, this does not provide enough to sustain all of the animals in our care.

Over the cold, wet months when pasture grazing is not possible hay becomes such a vital resource and our reserves are running drastically low.

This winter we have been asked to step in by other agencies to help with an unprecedented number of urgent cases, leaving us with our capacity stretched and many hungry mouths to feed.

To keep our animals fed and happy we need to purchase an additional 700 bales which will cost us £2975.

Please help to refill our barn and buy the forage our four-legged residents need over the coming months. Every single donation will make a difference and help keep those bellies full.

Thank you.
