Actress Liza Goddard and Norwich City football icon Rob Newman urge animal lovers across Norfolk to donate to Hallswood Animal Sanctuary.
On Saturday 12 October 2024, actress Liza Goddard and Norwich City football icon Rob Newman and his wife Jo visited Hallswood Animal Sanctuary in Stratton Strawless and met with some of the staff, volunteers and resident animals, to learn more about the organisation and its plans for the future.
During its 28-year history, Hallswood Animal Sanctuary has been dedicated to improving the lives of wildlife and domestic animals in Norfolk through rehabilitation, education and community outreach.
“There’s a lot of hard work ahead at Hallswood but the organisation has an exciting future”
Speaking today, animal lover Liza Goddard said “I really enjoyed meeting everyone and learning about Hallswood Animal Sanctuary, which cares for a wide range of animals at its sanctuary and in short-term and long-term foster homes. There’s a lot of hard work ahead at Hallswood but the organisation has an exciting future and I am looking forward to being involved in its journey.”
Goddard added: “Hallswood Animal Sanctuary relies on the generosity of individuals and organisations to fund its work, and there are a number of ways in which we can help including making a financial donation; purchasing items from the Hallswood Animal Sanctuary Amazon Wish List; donating goods, services and our time; and by rehoming a Hallswood animal.”
“We very much look forward to making regular visits to Hallswood in the future to help out and get our hands dirty”
Rob Newman explained: “Hallswood Animal Sanctuary currently has around 1000 animals in its care and during our visit to the sanctuary we got to meet some of their dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, pigs, geese, ducks, and ornamental birds. My wife Jo and I have always had a love for domestic animals and wildlife, and we very much look forward to making regular visits to Hallswood in the future to help out and get our hands dirty, as well as getting involved with some of the great fundraising initiatives that Hallswood is planning in 2025.”
Newman added: “In the meantime, I’m asking all animal lovers across Norfolk to donate to Hallswood Animal Sanctuary today as the organisation and the animals in its care are depending on our support now more than ever before to help pay for feed, bedding, veterinary bills, routine medication, and fuel for the sanctuary generator this winter. Every donation really will help to make a difference!”
