Spring Fair Sunday 12th May 2013 1-4 pm

Sunday 12th May 1-4pm - Reading Room, Whittlebury NN12 8XJ



Please come along and support us, Algernon Trust Rescue & Rehoming Sanctuary

The Animal Sanctuary was set up over twenty years ago when the founder Jane Shepherd moved to Whittlebury near Towcester. In 1991 Jane arrived with just five feral cats, one fox and one rabbit. Today there are usually at least sixty cats, twelve dogs, plus foxes and assorted poultry in the Trusts care.  Jane also provides a wildlife rescue service 24hours a day 52 weeks a year. The Trust re-homes cats and dogs where possible but many of the cats Jane takes in are sick and/or elderly who need to remain at the Sanctuary for the rest of their days. Currently there are over thirty residents. The Trust has become as much a hospice and retirement home for cats as a re-homing centre, and caring for sick and elderly feline friends puts an enormous strain on the Trusts finances.  Animals are taken in from a wide area not just from Northampton shire and adjacent counties but from all over the country.  The Trust has a strict “no kill” policy and Jane has no age restriction and has taken in cats over 20 years old.  All animals are neutered and micro chipped before being rehomed.




Please help us to raise funds to continue our work helping domestic animals and wildlife





We will have stalls, childrens games, refreshments will be available incuding vegetarian & vegan options.

We have new merchandise available for the fair including the launch of our new wristbands & car stickers which will both be available for £2 each.




We will be launching our new competition & you can find the details first at the fair!

Following our new registered charity status you will now be able to gift aid your donations if you are a UK tax payer & we will have the forms available.

We shall have the dogs from the Sanctuary popping along to say hello throughout the afternoon too!

Please do bring a cake for our cake stall if you are able!  If anyone is free to help set up we will be there from 11am, help packing away after would also be much appreciated!
