sponsor an animal
You can sponsor an animal from just £30 per year, with 100% of your donation going towards the cost of keeping your chosen animal fed, sheltered, and showered with love. In return, you'll receive a sponsorship pack (dispatched within 2 working days), making a perfect gift for friends & family too!

max's cafe
Our plant-based café is named in memory of our beautiful, kind bull, Max, who came to us at only 4 days old. We have an indoor area within Max’s Café, as well as an adjoining marquee, leading out to our beautiful children’s play area, so you can enjoy a coffee & cake whilst the little ones burn off some steam!

online store
Take a look at our online store, where you'll find our season tickets, a range of gift vouchers for general admission, ethical animal experiences, merch, and other seasonal items we'll be selling to help raise much-needed funds for our rescued animals. All proceeds go directly towards the care of our residents.

legacy giving
Help heal a Hopefield heart by remembering us in your will. By leaving a gift to us, you’ll be helping us to save more animals in need, like Juliet. When Juliet arrived she was just skin and bone, riddled with worms, and in a terrible state overall. Someone had even thrown bleach over her which left her badly burnt. This was one of the most horrific rescues we’ve had.

save a life campaign
Sign up today and Save a Life from as little as £2.00 per month – that’s less than the price of a takeaway coffee! We provide a forever home to our residents, ensuring that they’re provided with the love, care, and treatment that they need and deserve. Sadly, our life-saving work doesn’t come at a small cost, and daily running costs are now over £2,000.
