Offer some of your time to the animals
If you would like to help us at the sanctuary for a day whenever you are free, please complete the form below and we will be in touch as soon as a volunteering day is scheduled.
What It Entails
With over 600 animals, there is always a lot of work at the sanctuary and it gets even busier as we try to expand and improve the facilities and homes for our residents. That’s why it’s so important for us to get some help from our dedicated volunteers.
Volunteering typically involves physical work: cleaning, building, fencing, digging but we would also gladly accept help from people with specific skills such as veterinary care, fostering, photography, journalism, event planning etc. Please reach out to us through the volunteering form to let us know what type of work you are comfortable with and we will be in touch when an opportunity arises.
Current Volunteer Roles
There are many ways you can help our sanctuary and we will be posting different roles here, as soon as they are finalised.
Please take a look at our Sanctuary Assistant role description and feel free to send your application to backintodaylight@gmail.com
Sanctuary Assistant – 6 months
Also please email us if you would like to adopt or foster an animal. We are not handling home checks ourselves, but the rescues we are partnering with will be delighted to chat with you and welcome you as a fosterer or adopter if your home and situation are suitable.
Many thanks from everyone at Back Into Daylight!
Please Note
Age Requirements
You must be over 18 to volunteer or have a parent complete the form on your behalf.
What to Bring
We will provide you with all the necessary tools, however please be ready to get dirty, so do not wear anything that you cherish too much. Also a good pair of boots or wellies might be necessary during wet season.
Accommodation
Unfortunately we don’t have any accommodation onsite, so at the moment we can’t have live-in volunteers.
