For the last 15 years’ we have opened more to the public to generate much-needed funds for the animals. One of these improvements to the sanctuary was the development of Max’s Café. This has grown from strength to strength and we’re very proud to serve only 100% plant-based products.

• Working with our team to organise catering for any events we put on (afternoon teas etc.)

• Must have a level 2 food hygiene certificate (can be completed after appointment)
