Excuse my eclectic taste in music but the reason for this post is that I picked these 3 CD’s up for just £1 at the PAWS charity shop in Staple Hill.
Please go along and have a look at the great stuff they have for sale. Sadly they don’t currently have a FB page but they can be found in Staple Hill high street. See the attached picture.

Good evening everybody, today we had a "low key" open day (arranged at short notice after we had to cancel the one we had planned for a couple of weeks ago due to the impending bad weather ⛈️⛈️⛈️⛈️⛈️
It wasn't as busy as some open days but on the flip side we met lots of first time visitors and we had time to talk to everybody. It was really good to see everybody and we hope you all had a good time 🤞
I have added a few pictures taken by some of the volunteers today, we are ve...ry lucky to have the help of such an amazing group of friends that all give their time so freely - take a bow team, you are awesome!! üëè
We might get away with one or two more onsite open days this year and after that we will have to hold them offsite (in the dry) at the local village hall, please keep an eye on this page for further updates. These open days really help us continue to look after the animals in our care, whilst enabling us where possible to help other animals as well üôÇ
Finally, we had two sets of visitors that wish to remain nameless but they left very generous donations with Ruth at the gate. Thank you so much, your donations will really help us contnue helping animals üòç
Hoping to see you all at our next event
Best regards Ade, Sara & the team

Come along this Saturday for some bank holiday animal Handling
See lots of animals close up and learn lots about them

Wonderful place. Booked them to come out for a party for my 3 y.o. and it was amazing, they brought a lovely variety of creatures and worked really well with all the children. My little boy was thrilled.

What an amazing place !

Today we re-homed a tortoise and the level of help and advice was beyond belief .

We would 100% recommend that anyone looking for tortoises or exotic pets give this place a first look as you will not be disappointed.

Thank you very much :)

We loved coming today for the dinosaur event! Well my 4 yr old not so much when she thought she was getting eaten ÔøΩÔøΩ haha

Brilliant couple of hours out! And even better that the sun was shining for everyone! Keep up the good work! ÔøΩÔøΩ

We held our 6 year olds birthday party there today and it was absolutely brilliant.

5* rating without a doubt

Highly recommended.

We did the Meerkat meet, the staff were really nice & the animals are so cute. Such an amazing place! So happy there’s places like this around.

The sunday open days are great. My kids loved it and came away wanting to get involved in volunteering and caring for reptiles.

The staff at this place are so nice. Their friendly to talk to and clearly care lots for their animals. I think it’s amazing what they do. Sarah has been so kind to me and helped me out hugely with my gecko and can’t wait to see what they do in the future. 100% recommend!

The kids had a great time handling the snakes today. The staff were very friendly and answered all the kids questions. We will visit the sanctuary soon

Small but a great place to get up close to some fab animals. The guy who runs it is lovely, very informative and friendly. Can’t wait to go again.

Really lovely little place tucked away on the road to yate, ran by some very lovely people who obviously care for animals. Deffo worth a visit.

Lovely place with lovely friendly volunteers and a lovely selection of reptiles (my fave) as well as farm and exotic animals. Deffinately worth a trip. Can't wait for the once a month fundraising open days so I can hold one :)

Love This place !

Great atmosphere and lovely staff ,

Nice Mixture of Animals and beautiful plants .

Just had a great birthday party here for my daughter's 6th birthday. A massive thanks to Sarah & Stacey who's passion managed to captivate 11 otherwise over-hyper 6 year olds! A great place & well worth a visit. Help support this fantastic place! Tim

I love the viaducts sanctuary all the staff are friendly funny and brilliant with kids. I had a bithday party for my little girls 7th Birthday all kids and adults loved it. Thank you for making us feel so welcome and at home. A lovely comfortable environment for all. Would highly recommend a visit to the cafe next door then a walk around the sanctuary a perfect day out for the little ones.

Great experience, I took my daughter and friends here today and they loved holding the snakes, bearded dragon and tortoise.

Staff are lovely and very informative.

Will def be visiting again

Enjoyed our first visit to the Sanctuary. Very friendly and helpful staff. The animals were lovely and very well cared for. Loved holding the snake. A really enjoyable visit. Looking forward to coming back soon.

As an early valentine present my bf took me to the sanctuary to meet some snakes (one of my favourite animal ever). It was lovely meeting them and the other animals, the staff was lovely and clearly passionate about animal welfare. I would recommend you support their work and if you are looking to add a reptile companion to your life why not foster or adopt from them rather than going to a pet shop :)

Amazing experience going to meet the animals. The staffs main priority is animal welfare but at the same time kept the adults and children happy and well educated. I went in with a reptile fear but left quite fond of some of the little guys we'd met! Would recommend to anyone and I urge everyone to keep supporting the amazing job being done Here!

A very fun place to suit all ages! The staff were so friendly and spent so my h time with our daughters, talking about all the animals the girls for to hold. A fabulous experience that my girls will always treasure. A real mix of animals to see who are very well looked after too! Will definitely go back!
