Holly Hedge Animal Sanctuary is a local independent charity that rescues and rehomes unwanted, abandoned and often mistreated cats and dogs. We receive no funding from the government and rely on the generosity and goodwill of our supporters. We rescue and rehome around 800 animals each year, finding loving homes for each and every one of them. It costs approximately £650,000 every year to run – that’s over £1,780 each and every single day.
Christmas Shoebox Appeal
This Christmas we are asking our wonderful supporters to consider donating towards a ‘virtual’ shoebox
Special Appeal For Help With Veterinary Bills
This is a special appeal from our founder, Pauline Lesson.
Holly Hedge never refuses vet treatment to make our rescues pain free and whole again. However, in the past 24 months our vet bill has exceeded £250k .
Many more animals are entering our gates needing urgent help and we simply cannot let them down.

Christmas Shoebox Appeal 2023 – Thank you!
Thank you to everyone that donated a shoebox, a Christmas present or gave a monetary gift this festive season. We have been overwhelmed by the generosity of our supporters once again.
