Idlewild Animal Sanctuary

The Sanctuary to the Conwy Valley in May 2018. We are now enjoying working on developing the site and continuing with our missions to provide a support to animals and people alike.

Idlewild Animal Sanctuary is a Registered Charity (No. 1163184) set up to rehome and care for unwanted and abandoned animals.

We are unique in that we tend to rehome the more “unusual” animals, that might not otherwise find a loving home, though we do also currently have cats, dogs and rabbits living with us.

The majority of our animals come from other organisations - we have forged a relationship with the local RSPCA, for example - and we work to ensure that all animals receive the best attention that they deserve. We also work with the British Hen Welfare Trust (to rescue battery hens) as well as the local community who approach us directly about animal rehoming needs.

Our charity status was obtained in August 2015 and, through this rigorous process, we have demonstrated our commitment to ensure all animals in our care receive the highest level of care, attention and support to lead happy, healthy lives.

We have a team of dedicated staff who work at the Sanctuary and offer a visits programme for local schools and the wider community to find out more about us.
