While we aren't open to the public, we are happy to arrange days for people to visit.

If you live too far away from the Sanctuary to actually do the Bread Run (see above) you can still help by becoming a Virtual Bread Runner - this simply means that you just pretend to do the Bread Run whilst doing something else :)
Clothing created by some of our volunteers, the designs feature the Tower Hill Sanctuary name and logo, along with other designs featuring some of our resident animals.
