Supporting Us

Our top priority is to ensure the horses and animals in our sanctuary live peaceful, fulfilling lives, surrounded by love and care. We also aim to educate the public and younger generations on the remarkable history and ongoing impact of horses and animals. Your support is crucial, as we rely solely on donations and fundraising to care for our residents. By contributing, you'll help these magnificent creatures thrive in their forever home and continue their vital work.

One-off donation

Donations are the lifeline of our sanctuary, without the generosity of people like you leaving a contribution we wouldn’t have been able to help hundreds of horses and animals over the years.

Monthly donation

By pledging a monthly donation you’re supporting the animals by ensuring we can afford the regular food bills, their repeat medicines, monthly checkups and all of the other bits and bobs.

Sponsorships

Becoming a Northcote sponsor is one of the most effortless things you can do to help our resident animals.

Your sponsorship will help us provide our animals with a warm shelter, food, medical care and the love they need.

In return for your £20 minimum donation, we will send you gift pack including a photo of the animal you're currently helping. You'll also receive a welcome story, special sponsor certificate and invitations to meet them face to face at the sanctuary.

Our sponsorships would be ideal as gifts or as a treat for yourself. Please do not hesitate to contact us for more information

Amazon Wish List

It costs around £300 per week to provide our resident animals with the essential foods and medicines they need.

We've put together an Amazon Wish List filled with some of our everyday needs.

Please consider purchasing an item and help us to continue providing the best possible home to our animals.

Volunteering

We are entirely ran by volunteers and have no paid members of staff. If you’re enthusiastic about animals you would be a welcome addition to our team!
