HELP US BUY THIS LAND and save the sanctuary!

The happy pants ranch charity has been a safe sanctuary home to over 400 abused and special needs animals for over 10 years and now it faces closure unless we can raise enough funds to buy the land the sanctuary is currently located at and has been for the past 4 years.

So for the past 6 months myself and a handful of amazing people have been working with solicitors, planners and professionals on a ‘Plan B’ for the charity which was going to mean the animals and I get to stay on this piece of land, with planning permission and therefore prevent the eviction notice coming into force on Sept 3rd 2025 - which is only weeks away…

This was all going so well and looking so positive now everything was being done properly (and not just me fumbling my way through things as I’ve had to do in the past.)

However things have literally just taken a nosedive, to put it mildly, and myself and the animals unfortunately now have to vacate the site unless we can purchase the land for £500k. Obviously for such a small charity this is a huge, huge amount but we have to stay positive - nothing is impossible!

So if there’s any chance that this could, in our wildest dreams, be achievable, I have started a new fundraiser. If we reach the target then we can buy the land and stay… absolutely blummin’ amazing! BEST THING EVER!

Without this land to be on, all the plans that have been tirelessly worked on, are useless. And I, now, devastatingly, have until sept 3rd to remove myself, the shelters, fencing etc and, of course 400 rescue animals, off this piece of land, unless we can buy it.

Of course I’m in bits, but have to do everything I can to save the sanctuary. It’s a huge feat and one that right now I’m finding hard to come to terms with, but it’s not the first time myself and the animals have unfortunately been in this awful position, and we got through it, so I have to believe we will be saved…

So short of me meeting a millionaire in the next week, (form an orderly queue please!) we now have to reach out to everyone and anyone who can help in any way, shape or form.

This would be an AMAZING opportunity for anyone to donate to or invest in, a wonderfully worthy organisation who not only helps animals but helps the local community and people everywhere. The future potential is immense.

Please just spread the word, ask everyone and anywhere you can and hopefully with the power of you guys, the universe and positivity something will come up - as it did last time.

I have to believe that. For the animals and the humans we help.

PLEASE if you can’t donate to the fundraiser, just share far and wide..

Love and huuugest of thanks as always, Amey and all the animals (and hoomans) at The Ranch xx

Please note: If insufficient funds are raised or circumstances change regarding the purchase / relocation, then all funds raised would be used for other charity purposes, ensuring the animals and sanctuary continue to thrive.
