Oak Tree Animals' Charity

Oak Tree provides a safe place for all animals in their time of need. We look to rehome dogs, cats, and equines and work to support good, long-term healthy relationships between animals and their owners out in the community.

Founded in 1909 by Francis Cox, who campaigned for better working conditions for pit ponies and other working horses, the refuge has now grown to provide a home for horses, goats, sheep and cattle. It’s also a safe haven for stray, abandoned or unwanted dogs and cats who are awaiting new homes through our Adoption Programme.
