Knights Mead Animal Sanctuary is located on School Lane, West Lulworth.
It is a forever home for sheep, hens, ducks, pigs plus a few domestic animals.
It is a small sanctuary, founded on 11 November 2017, run by one person with the help of a handful of wonderful volunteers.
Mission
Our mission is to support and help wherever possible all living things.
We try to provide animals in our care with a forever home at the sanctuary as this gives them stability as moving homes can be very stressful.
However, during our hen saves we do offer a hen re-homing service as this allows us to save more hens.
All of our animals are allowed to live out their lives with the company of others.
We believe that it is never right to end the life of an animal if the individual wants to live and that euthanasia is only acceptable when it is done in the best interest of the animal.
We believe that saving one life may not change the world but surely for that one life, the world will change forever.

Latest Updates
23 September 2022:
50 hens saved from slaughter from closing down farm. These girls have travelled many miles across the country to ensure the entire flock were saved. It has been a joint effort from many sanctuaries and rescues within the UK to achieve it. We are looking to re-home these girls in small flocks.
Feeding
The sanctuary always welcome those who wish to feed the animals (and they have many lovely helpers that do this). However to ensure what they are fed is safe for them and so they don’t get over fed the sanctuary requires this to be pre-agreed.
