Holly is a lovely young lady who swam the distance from Raystede to her house (10k) at only 14.
“I choose to fundraise for Raystede because I am passionate about looking after animals. As I’m not old enough to volunteer, I wanted to find something else I could do to help. I’ve also rescued gerbils from Raystede and want to support other animals who end up without a home. Swimming the distance from my house to Raystede seemed like the perfect challenge for me as it’s almost exactly 10km, the furthest I had ever swum. I’m still swimming lots with Lewes swimming club and really enjoying it. I love visiting Raystede and seeing how happy and well looked after the animals are. Thank you for all the support you give them”

Get inspired with our A to Z of ideasIt costs over £6500 every day to run our animal welfare sanctuary, and provide the expert care our animals deserve. Many of the animals need rehabilitation and special care before we can even consider rehoming them.
Whether you raise £120 which feeds every animal at our site for a day, or £800 which will keep the animals warm every day over winter, your fundraising makes the world of difference!

When Layla arrived at Raystede we were astonished by her condition. This year we have had 1,076 requests to take in dogs, like Layla, who can no longer be cared for by their owners.
This is an animal welfare crisis.
