Celebrate World Animal Day at Remus Horse Sanctuary on Sunday 6 October 2024

INGATESTONE, U.K. - Sept. 24, 2024 - PRLog -- Join the animals and humans for their last Open Day of the 2024 season and celebrate World Animal Day with them on Sunday 6 October from 1pm to 4pm.

World Animal Day, officially 4 October, has become a global celebration for all animals and the people who love and respect them. It's known on every continent and celebrated in different ways in many countries, with no regard for nationality, religion or political ideology.

Founder of Remus Horse Sanctuary, Sue Burton says, "This year's theme for World Animal Day is: 'The world is their home too' which we wholly support – sadly there are far too many people in the UK and around the world who forget this!

"At Remus we work tirelessly to care for our animals and raise awareness of animal welfare to ensure that no animal is born to die. We are proud to celebrate and support this global movement to raise the status of animals everywhere at our final Open Day of 2024."

Visitors are welcome at the Sanctuary from 1pm to 4pm and can enjoy meeting over 100 animals and learn more about what the charity does and how it operates. There will also be a variety of activities for the whole family, such as walkabout entertainment, facepainting, live music, and many stalls to browse. Disney's character Mickey Mouse will also be visiting during the afternoon!

Parking is available on-site, with disabled access, and dogs are welcome on a lead. Refreshments will be available, including afternoon tea by advance booking.

Entry is just £7 for adults and £5 for children, or £15 to include the Cream Tea, per person.

The Sanctuary provides rehabilitation and care for over 100 animals, including horses, ponies, donkeys, goats, sheep and cats, and has been doing so since it was founded in 1983.

Sue continued: "World Animal Day is a day for animal lovers worldwide. It exists to raise the status of animals everywhere and to improve the standards of their welfare around the globe. It's a day to take action against animal cruelty, neglect and unfair treatment and aims to make the world a better place for all animals.

"We hope you will come and celebrate World Animal Day with us on Sunday 6 October."
