swanpit wildlife sanctuary and childrens farm

hi everyone

              i,m marc palmer and im the director of the swan pit wildlife sanctuary and childrens farm.firstly WOW!! what a year and im looking forward to 2006. We started this sanctuary back in 2004  to house our various animals rescued from the pet trade,cruelty,factory farming and general disownment.We have a no sale and no kill policy so all the residents who come here remain here for life.The sanctuary is set in 4 acres and has a farm area pond,paddocks,rabbit runs,hedghog area,avairies,and field shelters we work hard to ensure all the animals and birds have stimulation and behaviour enrichment throughout there days here.We have attracted a tremendous amount of media intrest both locally and nationally due to myself training animals for tv work and being 19 when i started this adventure and so far all has been a really positive experience for all involved.I am enjoying the experience of training and running the sanctuary and express a real invitation to yourselves and your family to join us at the sanctuary and if you ring before we will personally show you round and give you a private demonstration

til then

thank you for the invaluable support

As a visitor to the sanctuary.The emphasis is on relaxation and natural behaviour with our animals we work to promote our centre as a tranquil relaxing envrioment for our residents and visitors

the sanctuary is proven to be completly different to any other place with our sanctuary been small yet visitors spending up to 6 hours here at a time  just relaxing round our animals
