"Barby Keel is the most genuine and kind hearted person I've ever met and her and her " motley crew" deserve all the help and support from the public they can get to keep this marvellous rescue centre going. We visited last month and it was well worth the trip to see so many happy and well cared for animals there. The shop is a treasure trove and the cafe delightful. This world needs more places like Barby Keel Animal Rescue. Hats off to you all x"

"Such a wonderful place, the animals all seemed very happy and well looked after, lots of friendly cats and we enjoyed stroking the cats who wanted some strokes. The shop is very lovely and we picked up a few pieces along with a lovely t shirt which I was very excited about as we're duck owners. The food from the cafe was lovely and my husband and I were very pleased that it was all vegan 🥰 We will definitely be visiting and donating again when we are traveling nearby again. Thank you for a lovely Sunday."

"Tucked away, deep in the sussex countryside, you will find this sanctuary dedicated to saving animals. From foxes to cats, horses to pigs, an amazing team of volunteers look after the taken in animals. A vegan cafe offers a great menu, hot and cold with plenty of seating. Run purely by donations."
