Hugletts Wood Farm is truly special place - it is home to over 200 rescued farm animals that were once destined for slaughter. There are cows (of which three are handicapped), bullocks, sheep, pigs, hens, cockerels, ducks, chickens, cats and dogs - each of whom has his or her own story of a sad past.
For example - Radhe Priya (cow) was born on a dairy farm in Cornwall with no eyes and lived in a pen crammed with 50 other fully sighted calves. She was slowly starving to death as she was too afraid to move to the feeding area. Thankfully she was brought to Hugletts where she was nursed back to health and happiness.
Each of the animals is lovingly cared for by two devoted people - Wenda Shehata and Matthew Sparey. They work tirelessly to care for the animals, look after the surrounding environment, grow vegetables, and generally live spiritually and in harmony with nature so that the animals for whom they care can live a peaceful and enjoyable life. Wenda and Matthew live by many of the Jain and Hindu teachings and principles both in carrying out their compassionate work and also by their work - as a result they are becoming increasingly well known to the Jain and Hindu Communities.
