Welcome to Friends Sanctuary

Join us in caring for animals, people and the natural world we all share.

Caring for animals, people and the land

  • Shaunti, one of our rescued dogs, resting on her bed

    Rescue and Rehabilitation

    We rescue animals in need and nurse injured wildlife back to health, then find each one a safe, loving home or return it to the wild.

  • A green valley below forested hills at the sanctuary

    Awareness

    We help people develop empathy for every living being, and show how regenerative farming and caring for the land go hand in hand with animal welfare.

  • Chilli and Pepper, two of our geese, out with a friend

    Community

    We host hands-on placements for veterinary and environmental science students, and run workshops for our community.

Love from all Friends Sanctuary Animals

About Friends Sanctuary

Friends Sanctuary is a not-for-profit sanctuary in Kyogle, NSW, caring for rescued farm animals and native wildlife across a living landscape of paddocks, bushland and creek.

We believe the wellbeing of animals and people is bound up with the health of the land, water and communities around it. We work toward a world where animals are treated with kindness, and nature has room to thrive.
