Animal Cwtch More Than Just an Animal Encounter – A Heartfelt, Inclusive Experience for Everyone
At Animal Cwtch, our mission is to inspire a lifelong love and respect for animals through hands-on education, immersive encounters, and therapeutic experiences. We believe that by fostering real connections between people and animals, we can create a more compassionate and sustainable world.
Our animals aren’t just pets—they’re part of our family. Their wellbeing and trust are our top priorities, and we ensure that every interaction is calm, respectful, and enriching for both animals and visitors.
We welcome everyone, including children and adults with additional needs, sensory sensitivities, physical disabilities, anxiety, and neurodivergent traits. Our sessions are fully adaptable to suit a variety of audiences, ensuring an experience that is inclusive, engaging, and memorable for:
• Schools and educational workshops
• Private parties and celebrations
• Therapy and wellbeing sessions
• Care homes and SEN groups
• Businesses, charities, and community events
• Media and film work
We don’t just show animals—we tell their stories. Our experiences highlight their natural behaviours, personalities, and the bonds they share with us, helping visitors develop curiosity, compassion, and conservation awareness.
Book an experience today and let us bring the magic of animals to you.
How We Make a Difference
• Deep Bonds with Our Animals – Every animal at Animal Cwtch is handled with care, trust, and respect. They are not props; they are individuals with personalities and preferences.
• Fully Inclusive and ALN-Friendly – We understand sensory sensitivities, neurodiversity, and accessibility needs because it’s part of our own journey. We create experiences that are calm, adaptable, and welcoming for all.
• Therapeutic and Wellbeing Focused – Our animal-assisted interactions help reduce stress, encourage social connection, and bring comfort to those who need it most, whether in care homes, SEN groups, or mental health settings.
• Education That Inspires – With a qualified teacher on staff, our sessions align with the UK school curriculum and can be tailored to specific themes. From biodiversity and conservation to adaptations and animal behaviour, we make learning engaging and hands-on.
• Ethical Animal Welfare Standards – Our animals are given choice and control in their interactions, with breaks, enrichment, and the highest welfare standards ensuring they are always comfortable.
• Sustainability and Conservation – We actively promote responsible pet ownership, work with 9Trees to offset our carbon footprint, and are always looking for ways to reduce environmental impact.
• Recognized and Trusted – We are members of the British Herpetological Society (BHS), International Herpetological Society (IHS), REPTA, and Responsible Reptile Keeping, demonstrating our commitment to high welfare standards and ethical animal care.
• Perfect for Any Occasion – Whether it’s a birthday party, a SEN-friendly session, a corporate wellness event, or an educational school visit, our encounters create memories that last a lifetime.
