Company activities and impact

Fripps Farm Animal Rescue, operating as a Community Interest Company (CIC), is a non-public animal sanctuary dedicated to the lifelong care and protection of animal who who experienced abuse, neglect or displacement. While we are not open to the general public, our work delivers significant social, emotional, and environmental benefits to the community, in full alignment with our community interest objectives. Promoting Animal Welfare - Throughout the reporting period, we provided lifelong sanctuary to over 250 animals rescued from situations of cruelty, slaughter, abandonment, or unsuitable captivity. Our holistic approach to animal care includes trauma-informed rehabilitation, ongoing veterinary treatment, and species-appropriate enrichment. By taking in high-need cases, we support the wider animal welfare infrastructure and alleviate pressure on local services. Therapeutic Visits for Terminally Ill Individuals - In partnership with local healthcare providers and hospice organisations, we offer private, supervised visits to terminally ill individuals seeking comfort through animal-assisted therapy. These deeply meaningful experiences provide emotional relief, connection, and peace to individuals and their families during end-of-life care. While our sanctuary is not open to the public, we consider this initiative a core expression of our commitment to compassionate care - both human and animal. Community Education and Awareness - We continue to engage the wider community through our website and social media platforms, focussing our posts on animal welfare and rehabilitation. Employment and Volunteering - We created 3 paid positions, offering skills development in animal care and management. These roles support personal growth and community cohesion while advancing our mission. Collaboration and Advocacy - Our sanctuary collaborates with veterinarians, researchers, and fellow animal welfare organisations to promote best practices in long-term care, ethical rescue, and environmental sustainability. These efforts contribute to both policy development and frontline care improvements. Conclusion - Fripps Farm remains deeply committed to enriching both animal and human lives through thoughtful, compassionate, and community-focused work. Even without a public-facing facility, we continue to provide broad and lasting social value through our care model.
