NEW! Junior Animal Caregiver Experience in Essex

Does your child dream of caring for animals? Make their wish come true with our Junior Animal Caregiver Experience! This is your chance to treat your budding animal enthusiast to try a hands-on, ethical animal experience in Essex that is sure to be a huge hit with them (and guaranteed to elevate you to ‘best parent’ or ‘best grandparent’ status ever!).

This brand new animal adventure consists of:

• • Two hours of hands-on time with our rescued animals (supervised by the sanctuary animal caregivers)

• • Food & drink, a souvenier gift, a certificate of completion, and a free return visit

• • 1 free adult ticket so that that adult can take one million photos of the fun they’re going to have

This immersive programme lets kids age between 6-14 step into the shoes of an animal caretaker and they will get to feed, groom, and interact with our incredible rescued residents, learning firsthand what it takes to provide loving care.

This is an unforgettable chance to cultivate their natural curiosity and compassion for animals, and while they’re having the time of their lives, every penny raised by you purchasing the experience will go back into helping care for the rescued animals that call Hopefield their forever home.
