Description

FRIEND is a farm animal sanctuary with nearly 200 animals. They find their way here through being unwanted, abused, neglected or abandoned. The sanctuary offers a free roaming (as far as possible and safe) home to pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, cows, goats, sheep and one alpaca who thinks he’s a sheep, on a 10 acre site nestled in between the orchards and hop farms of rural Kent. We began over 25 years ago, founded by Marion Eaton, dedicated activist and warrior who sadly passed away in 2016.

FRIEND Farm Animal Sanctuary is run with an ethical vegan philosophy of education about animal welfare and the need for a world of compassion to all its inhabitants, fauna and flora alike. As well as educating visitors about the animals, we are working to make the sanctuary an example of ecological sustainability, for example planting native trees, rewilding and growing food.

Our mission

We are Sanctuary, sanctuary means to us a safe space, free from harm and oppression.

FRIEND is open for unwanted, neglected and abused animals.. We are educators too , teaching about animal sentience and care, veganism and ecological diversity and sustainable plant based food systems. We hope to contribute to a world in which humans and animals can live together with compassion and respect for each other and the Earth.
