Haydock Announces Support of Bleakholt Animal Sanctuary
Haydock Finance is delighted to announce its charity support for Bleakholt Animal Sanctuary. The sanctuary is a vital and longstanding animal welfare organisation in Greater Manchester. Located on a 55-acre site, Bleakholt has been providing shelter, care, and love to animals in need since its founding in 1957.
The sanctuary houses a variety of animals, from horses to chickens, with approximately 200 animals on site at any given time. Bleakholt is a beacon of compassion, offering much needed rescue services to abandoned animals. While the sanctuary side provides a permanent home to animals that can no longer be rehomed, the rescue side works tirelessly to rehome animals such as cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, and even rats. The recent financial support from Haydock Finance will play a critical role in supporting the sanctuary’s ongoing work.
Karen Weed, Sanctuary Manager at Bleakholt, expressed her gratitude for the support: "It costs £1.6 million a year to run Bleakholt Animal Sanctuary and we are solely dependent on donations. Having companies like Haydock Finance supporting us is massive for us to continue to care for the animals who live their lives out with us and those who need our help before finding their forever homes."
Lea Lawrence, Marketing Manager at Haydock Finance, added: "We are incredibly proud to support Bleakholt Animal Sanctuary to help raise vital funds. To kick off this support, we have organised fundraising through our annual Christmas jumper day and will continue to provide support throughout the year. Bleakholt’s dedication to animal welfare is truly inspiring, and we are delighted to play a part in helping them continue their mission. As huge animal lovers this cause is close to our heart."
Haydock Finance’s support will help ensure that Bleakholt Animal Sanctuary can continue its essential work, providing a safe and loving environment for animals in need. The team at Bleakholt is hopeful that more businesses will join in supporting this important cause to secure the future of the sanctuary for years to come.
