To remind, reinforce and educate all ages about the cost and requirements of animal ownership, with the ultimate aims of increasing understanding of animal welfare needs, improving the quality of life for many animals and reducing the number of unwanted animals who need rehoming.

Situation
We are working to combat the immense tidal wave of animals surrendered to sanctuaries such as Ferne for rehoming. Through education we hope to increase understanding of animal welfare needs, the requirements of different animals and the cost implications of animal ownership.
Solution
We will run a variety of multisensory educational activities to engage with the children who visit the Sanctuary. There will be monthly themes and we hope that many of those who attend will be keen to return from month to month. All activities will be fun and memorable, enabling children and their families to learn without even realising that they are learning!
