All Animal Rescue in Mula

Jacobs Ridge Jacobs Ridge is a vegan animal sanctuary. It offers volunteering breaks which help toward the feed and general care of the animals. As vegans, we are keen to share with everyone the delights of eating vegan. There is no pressure on anyone but whilst you stay with us, you enjoy a vegan diet. We have never understood why anyone would want to get involved with an animal sanctuary, help the animals and then at the end of the day return to the dinner table and eat them. Breakfast is your own choice and then lunch and supper are served to everyone together, allowing time to chat and discuss the day and have an open table for topics which spread far and wide! The food is created by the Jacobs Ridge team who use a combination of their own recipes and some adaptations from the Vegan Food Pimp’s recipes. If you have a special dietary requirement, just let us know in advance and we will work with you to ensure you have the best experience whilst with u We believe that every being deserves to live a Life Without Fear. Please note that we can not accommodate for day visits.   Jacob’s Ridge Story Founded in late 2011, the sanctuary was initially set up as a private, safe haven for animals. The daily running costs started to balloon as more animals joined.  Private funding just wouldn’t be enough to keep all the animals in a responsible way. Over the past two and a half years Jacobs Ridge has blossomed into a fully functioning and respected animal sanctuary. We work with specialist vets, animal behaviourists, trainers, and activists (Cruelty Watch, RSPCA, Cat Protection League). The sanctuary fully committs to providing a safe haven for mistreated and unwanted animals. We will continue to grow with planned development over the coming years. Mission Statement We believe that every being has a right to live and to live life without fear. Thus, it is our mission to create a safe environment for a forever home to animals who need it. One where they don’t have to work or provide for us. One where they can just be what they are and do as they please. Jacobs Ridge is not just a sanctuary for animals, but for humans also. In connecting with the animals, nature and at the same time following a vegan lifestyle, we aim to create a space where people can find inner harmony and reconnect with themselves. We wish to further improve the lives of our rescue animals. We want to offer a permanent home to more in need by securing and expanding the site. Lastly, educate those who need it on the exploitation of animals so that more animals can live life without fear. The Volunteer Experience We want you to get the most from your stay at Jacobs Ridge. To us, that means you should never be thinking about anything else except the reason you are here. So we never want you worrying about your accommodation, your next meal, your drinks, your comfort, your transportation or simple everyday needs. At Jacobs Ridge, we cover it all. The most important thing is you have fun, connect with our animal family and take time out to just “be”. The animals get so much from you being with them. Be that in silence, reading aloud, singing or playing an instrument (they all love music), so be a part of their happy, new lease of life. https://www.jacobsridge.com/the-volunteer-experience Your Tent Following on from our first 2 years we upgraded all the tents for 2017 which are now bigger and canvas. All tents have proper beds and bedding in the style of “glamping”. Each tent is roomy and comfortable with all the little extras you would probably not expect to find when camping. We understand that at the end of the day, you want to be able to sleep in a clean, comfortable bed. As you go to sleep to the sound of nature and of course, the donkeys (as those who have been here will testify)! The Food As vegans, we are keen to share with everyone the delights of eating vegan.
