We are passionate about the health and well-being of all alpacas and have quickly gained a reputation for giving neglected and unwanted alpacas a second chance of life. 

The costs of caring for these animals, particularly twice daily feeding, husbandry tasks and veterinary care are ever increasing. Our Open Day is dedicated to raise funds to enable us to continue caring for less fortunate alpacas.
