Corporate Partnerships & Fundraising
We believe in transformative change through strategic partnerships which address interconnected societal challenges, particularly mental health improvement, educational empowerment, local community action, and animal welfare.

Since 2005, we at Woodlands Animal Sanctuary have been dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating animals across Northwest England. Our sanctuary currently cares for over 150 rescue and resident animals, and we pride ourselves on taking on rescue cases that other organisations might find challenging.
Despite being an independent charity, our work extends beyond just the rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of abused, vulnerable and neglected animals.
We also focus on a comprehensive rescue prevention program, aiming to improve animal welfare through education, neutering programs, and providing community support in the cost of living crisis.
This holistic approach also encompasses human welfare; providing mental health support and community connections through a wealth of volunteering opportunities to suit individual needs.
Running our sanctuary costs over £1,000 daily, and every donation directly supports our animal care efforts.
For businesses seeking to make a meaningful impact, supporting Woodlands Animal Sanctuary offers an opportunity to contribute to animal welfare, community resilience, and social support programs. We welcome partnerships that help us continue our vital work.
