World Zombie Day is a day where we can celebrate and honour the undead by joining together in an international effort to better the planet through raising money for charity.
This year we are fundraising for Hopefield Animal Sanctuary. Founded in 1983 with a mission to provide a safe and loving home for abused, abandoned, and neglected animals, it serves as a haven for over 600 animals, including horses, farm animals, reptiles, and exotic species.
The sanctuary offers:
- Lifelong care with food, medical treatment, and a secure environment
- Public access, with visitor fees directly supporting animal care
- Educational programs promoting animal welfare and compassion
Located in Brentwood, Essex, Hopefield is just a 30-40 minute train ride from London, making it an accessible day trip. The sanctuary is a short walk from Brentwood High Street and well-connected by public transport.
Visitors can explore 53 acres of beautiful Essex countryside while meeting the animals and hearing their stories. The sanctuary features family-friendly events, ethical animal experiences, school trips, birthday parties, a plant-based café, and a children’s play area—all while educating visitors about compassionate animal treatment and generating funds for their rescue work.
