Croskennan Lane ‘Sponsor Our Stables’ SOS Appeal
Crosskennan Lane Animal Sanctuary,CLAS. in Antrim was established in 1996 and was the first educational equine welfare charity set up in Northern Ireland. The charity is concerned with the rescue and rehabilitation of animals, in particular horses and ponies, but also dogs, cats and chickens that have been abused and neglected. At CLAS the animals are encouraged, where possible, to ‘earn their keep’ and following a comprehensive training period, some of our horses and dogs participate in educational workshops, and our Animals Helping People programs, working closely with individuals and groups from the community. A case of animals in need, helping people in need. The cost of running Crosskennan Lane Animal Sanctuary is now £15,000 a month for the animal’s feed, bedding and veterinary care. We need your help to continue to provide a safe haven for the abandoned, neglected and forgotten animals of Northern Ireland. Over the past 12 months, Equine Welfare in Northern Ireland has reached crisis point and the number of calls for help has increased by 200%. The charity simply cannot cope with the increased workload and we desperately need financial help. We have launched our S.O.S appeal ( Sponsor Our Stables ) where we are asking private individuals and businesses to sponsor one of our stables for a donation each month/year. For just a small donation towards the cost of looking after the four legged occupant individuals can sponsor a stable for themselves, a friend or family member. We are also asking business’s to sponsor a stable and get some advertising space that will be on display to all of our visitors. Stable sponsorship costs £120 per annum for private individuals and families and we ask for a minimum of £240 for businesses with an additional £16 for a stable name plaque. This is a great alternative to sponsoring an individual sanctuary animal as sponsored animals may be fortunate enough to find a permanent home but their friends at CLAS still need your financial support.
