Back Into Daylight Animal Sanctuary
Volunteer day at the sanctuary and Potluck .
We had so many wonderful people volunteering giving up their free time to help the animals at our sanctuary .
We got lots of work done cleaning sheds and putting wire on a new fence .
We also got two new gates put up along the fence .
This fence will make so much easier because the goats were harassing everyone who brought wheelbarrows through their area . Now we can put them in the new area while people are working in their old area so great .
I think everyone enjoyed the the day and meet new people .
Everyone seemed to have a laugh and some fun while helping the animals .
Thanks so much to everyone for taking orders and for been so good to do the jobs they were asked to do .
We always have so much to do at the sanctuary and need money and help.

Another successful, productive and joy-filled day at the sanctuary! 🐷 🐓 🐶

There’s something so special about coming together for the animals, getting stuck into the work, sharing delicious vegan food and spending time with a community that cares deeply about giving rescued animals the lives they deserve.

From helping around the sanctuary to sharing a meal together, every little action makes a difference. And, of course, no potluck would be complete without an incredible spread of homemade vegan food! 🥗

Thank you to everyone who came along, volunteered, cooked, helped and made the day so special.

Another day of choosing compassion, another day of showing that kindness can be at the heart of everything we do. 🌱

A huge thank you to NOMS 💚

We’d like to take a moment to thank the wonderful team at NOMS for supporting Back Into Daylight Animal Sanctuary over the past few months by giving our charity box a home in their shop 🐾

NOMS isn’t only a fantastic shop with brilliant products, they have a very big heart too. By simply giving us a little space and inviting their customers to support our animals, they’ve helped us raise much-needed funds for the hundreds of animals in our care.

Small acts of kindness like this make a real difference to a volunteer-run sanctuary like ours. Every donation helps us provide food, shelter, veterinary care and a safe life for animals who need us.

Thank you, NOMS, for standing behind our animals and for being such a wonderful part of our community. 🥰🐔🐷🐴🐐

Please support businesses that support animals!

Why did you stop eating animals?

Maybe you saw something that changed the way you looked at animals.
Maybe you learned something you couldn’t unlearn.
Maybe you just always knew it’s just wrong.

Whatever your reason is, we’d love to hear it 🐷🐮🐔

Three of our cats died the year feline leukaemia got into this sanctuary.

We stopped it by testing and vaccinating every cat here. It can come back through infected cats wandering in from the farms around us, and from new cats we take in all the time. The only thing standing between it and the 26 cats in our care is a vaccination that has to be renewed every single year.

That renewal is due now. All 26 of them, seen by the vet, examined and vaccinated. €2,500 in total. €96 a cat.

€96 covers one cat for the year. €48 covers half a visit. €25 goes straight against the vet's invoice.

We need this raised by the 20th of November.

Hercules has a very important message for you 🐓❤️

He needs a Guardian Angel.

This big boy was found abandoned on a beach in Skerries. A kind Polish woman took him in and cared for him before bringing him to Back Into Daylight, where he has now settled into sanctuary life very nicely.

He has also taken it upon himself to keep the other animals in line 😂

For just €8 a month, you can become Hercules' Guardian Angel and help provide his food, care and safe home 🪽

Want to say hello to Hercules?

Leave him a comment below. He promises to read every single one ❤️

Please like and share this post too. Every share really helps us reach new people and gives Hercules a better chance of finding his Guardian Angel.
