Thank you for visiting this site of our sanctuary, we hope you enjoy meeting the horses and donkeys. This site is by no means complete - still slowly adding to it little bits at a time so there will always be extra when you check back. Currently working on the donkeys information, then it will be the horses, etc etc......

The Flicka Foundation provides permanent sanctuary for horses and donkeys that are elderly, ailing or traumatised from cruelty. We also have some pigs, cows a few small animals and our own dogs and cats – all unwanted and ‘surplus to requirement’.
They stay here for the rest of their days and no animal is ever put to sleep unless there is no other avenue to explore for their well-being. Many come here in the ‘twilight’ years of their lives.
The sanctuary has been on the south coast of Cornwall since 2002

The Flicka Foundation was established in 1995, founded by Mary Berryman, initially under the name 'The Golden Oldies' - since then we have taken in and rescued over 350 animals. Some have come via the RSPCA and South West Equine Protection, while some are cruelty cases brought to our attention by the public or legal avenues. We currently have 36 horses and 30 donkeys. Click here for Horses Gallery and here for Donkey Gallery.
We are a small sanctuary in terms of revenue, but quite large when you count up our residents, covering 30 acres, we ensure that every animal in our charge has the best care and attention at all times. It is our ambition to have more ‘Flicka’ centres eventually and give refuge to so many horses & donkeys in desperate need of a home where they will live out their days in peace and tranquility, being loved, as they deserve
We hope you may consider making a donation using the button below or maybe you would like to adopt one of our ‘residents’?
