Big V Sanctuary and Hospice is a Vegan Run animal sanctuary, based in Chateauponsac, France. We are a registered non-profit association caring for over 150 residents, both farmed and companion animals, who have been rescued from neglect, mistreatment or slaughter. Our vision is to create a peaceful world for all living beings; a world built on justice and respect, regardless of species. In our hospice, we take care of those nearing the end of their life, with dignity, kindness and respect.
All the money raised will be used to feed the 150+ animals at the Big V Sanctuary. The food bill is always at least €2500 per month so any donation helps!

Dear Sanctuary Friends
The Sanctuary this week have had an agonising and unsettling week. Winifred, our beloved rescued lamb, once her cast was removed from the broken leg, the vet advised that the leg could not be saved. It was time for amputation.
Miranda and Jerome have gone to all lengths to save Winifred’s leg, but sadly it was not meant to be. She went in for surgery and came home the same day as the veterinary staff said she bleated for home so much they thought it was best she didn’t stay the night. On return she has not moved from the side of Gwynevere, her best 2-legged friend.
Thankfully she is doing well and is learning to walk around without the balance of her leg and cast. She’s enjoying being in the living room with her human and doggie friends. The Sanctuary are keeping a close eye on her, and she is under veterinary monitoring. She’s a strong cookie and come this far.
She may need a leg brace and the Sanctuary are currently looking at options and costings, plus fundraising options for this.
Thanks for being here, supporting. The unexpected operation cost alone has been massive and without you, our beautiful, sweet Winifred couldn’t get the surgery and care she needed.
Much love
Your Big V Sanctuary Friends.

Louise Griifin is an Admin for fund raising for Big V Sanctuary and Hospice. She has Just launched an appeal "500 for 50".
This is a Big Birthday Year - Jerome and Miranda who run the sanctuary are 50 years old on the 23rd and 24th May 2004. The dream they have had is to have 500 Teamers supporting the Sanctury.
500 Teamers, each giving one euro a month, which taken together will give money towards the basic food needed for the animals.
Jerome and Miranda devote their live to the sanctuary. Can we as existing teamers come together to give them their wish for their 50th Birthdays? Yes we can make it happen by just giving a little extra time and thought.
Today there are 250 Teamers. All we have to do is find one person each. We can do this for them.
If all of us who are Teamers introduce one or two people to the Sanctuary; explain how they contribute just one euro and that euro will make change happen. Because we are already teamers we can show them what to do and help them through the process. It just
requires a little time. The time that Jerome and Miranda give is their whole lives devoted to the animals.
So who can you enrol to Teaming - your partner, a family member, a friend, a colleague at work, someone at the gym, a fellow churchgoer, a social media friend . . . . They do not need to be followers of the group just sympathetic to giving the animals the best life.
Please. please make your mind up to do this and give Jerome and Miranda a birthday to remember.
I have just started with one person - my husband, John Dunn, became a Teamer on 10/5/2024. I will ask my daughter too Who will you ask?
