We’re looking for a dedicated volunteer cleaner to help our team in the mornings with general cleaning duties in our new kennel block.
Tasks will include cleaning the corridors and windows, keeping the washing up to date, and generally keeping the kennel block clean and welcoming for our volunteers, and staff.
If you’ve got a couple of hours to spare, enjoy working around animals, and want to make a real difference, we’d love to hear from you!
Please email admin@edenanimalrescue.org.uk or call 01931716114 to get involved.
We’re urgently looking for foster homes for two of our amazing dogs — Dodge and Xena!
These sweet dogs need a safe, loving place to stay while they wait for their forever families. All supplies and support will be provided — you just bring the love and continue with training (supported)!
If you’ve ever thought about fostering, now is the perfect time to make a difference.
Please email us or call 01931716114 if you can help!

We have many animals, all with their own personalities and needs, but all with one hope… that they can be the next one to find their new home. Providing them with this chance is quite simply the best way we can help them.
It can be just as good for you as it is for them! That’s not to say it might not take some work (and likely a lot of patience!) as all involved adjust, but we are sure you can already imagine the rewards when everyone has settled in together.
If you think you might be able to offer one of our animals a forever home, you have already taken your first step by looking at our webpage. Your next step is to contact us. Our Rescue Centre at Moorlands Head Farm is open 6 days a week by appointment 11:30am to 3pm (we are closed on Wednesdays for staff training – sorry!). We will ask you to fill out a questionnaire and if you decide to adopt an animal from us, once approved you will have a new friend for life. We may request a home visit after a few weeks.
Eden Animal Rescue is gearing up for a year full of exciting fundraising events – and we need your help!
We’re looking for raffle prize donations from generous businesses and individuals to help raise vital funds for the animals in our care. Whether it’s a gift voucher, hamper, experience, a unique item, or a bottle of something – every prize makes a difference and helps us continue our rescue work.
Get in touch today and be part of supporting local animals in need!
You can drop them at our centre or at one of our charity shops and address it to Sarah.
Thank you for your kindness and support – we couldn’t do it without you!

Ways to Donate to Eden animal rescue
DONATE CASH OR GOODIES/THINGS
Raising funds is a huge part of our work and without this money we quite simply couldn’t afford to run the rescue centre.
Eden Animal Rescue is working to raise £500,000 to fund the on-going build of a new kennel block. The aim is to have better facilities for the welfare of the dogs that stay with us.

Voting could not be easier, just click on the link and complete a few simple questions to why you would like to nominate us.
Your Support Helps Us Help Them
We are proud to be a non-destroy rescue and save animals with medical or behavioural issues that others turn away. Your support helps us to help them.
If you join us you’ll be helping to save and rehome hundreds of animals each year.
A Will is one of the most important documents you can draw up. It ensures that your wishes are carried out after your death and that your family, friends, and charitable causes close to your heart, are provided for in the way you would like. If you die without making a Will the State decides what happens to your estate, and it may not go where you would like it to.

Our shops are vital to our fundraising. We can recycle your unwanted things in our charity shops. We have one in Penrith & one in Kirby Stephen.
We will accept with thanks all items that can be reused and are in good condition including used fabric items including; clothes, cloths, shoes, bags & bedding (not duvets & pillows)
As a busy rescue centre, we rely on support from businessess within our community. If your business can help, please get in touch with us.
We especially need supplies of soap powder, washing up liquid, bin liners, dustpan & brushes, brooms & mops.
Other than cash you can support us by donating items for the animals. You can do this by having a look at our Amazon wishlist. We also have collection points in Penrith, for instance our wheelie bin at Morrisons and receptacles at Pets at Home, WCF, Booths, Penrith CoOp & the Devonshire Arcade pet shop.
We really appreciate donations of dogs & cat food, which helps us to keep the animals well fed & healthy. It would be beneficial for the animals to have a consistent diet, so ideally, we’d like Harrington’s Lamb & Rice flavour dog food & Whiskas cat food please. If unsure get in touch before you donate.
Ever Thought Of Fundraising
Interested in fundraising for Eden Animal Rescue, but not sure what activity you would like to do? Check out our guide to fundraising.
Not in a position to adopt an animal?
You can help by sponsoring an animal from as little as £15 year.
We never turn away an animal because of age or health problems and sponsorship helps to cover the cost of medication and food for those animals who are difficult to rehome.
Fostering Homes for Dogs & Cats
We are in need of foster homes for both cats and dogs
A fosterer gives the dog or cat the opportunity to receive the love, care and attention before finding a permanent home.
It is a great way to make friends and become part of the team at Eden Animal Rescue
Whether you are a good poop scooper, great cake baker, DIY enthusiast, dedicated dog walker or just love stroking cats you can help us! Please do contact us if you would like to help or get involved in any way.
We need help in all areas of our work:
There are several benefits to leaving a legacy to Eden Animal Rescue. A legacy will make sure that the charity will continue its invaluable work for years to come.
By including a gift to Eden Animal Rescue in your Will, you will make a lasting impact on the lives of homeless animals in the Eden Valley and beyond. You can choose to leave a specific sum of money, your estate, a percentage of your estate or a particular item or asset.
It can also reduce the amount of inheritance tax paid by your estate. For many of us, the most generous act of giving is by way of a bequest to a favoured Charity. This is your means of saying, “You’re doing amazing work” when you are no longer able to say it for yourself.
We are very grateful for the support we receive from the following organisations
We are a very busy rescue so we may not be able to answer the telephone straight away if we are caring for the animals. Please leave a message and your phone number and we will return your call as soon as possible.
Emails and Facebook messages will be answered as soon as possible during office hours (9:00am – 5:00pm). Thank you for your understanding.
We are happy to accept all donations, but can we please ask that any items are clean and in working order.
We are unable to take duvets and pillows.
(Please note that times are subject to volunteer availability, call to check)
