We want to say a huge thank you to Ricky Gervais for including Wild Futures as one of his charities benefiting from the proceeds of his latest tour. We cannot express how grateful we are for this incredible gift that is coming at the end of the hardest year our charity has had to face. Whilst our charity is facing uncertainty and changing times ahead, this donation comes at a critical time for us, and we cannot say thank you to Ricky enough. When the monkeys have suffered so much at human hands, the compassion of Ricky and all of our supporters this winter really helps Wild Futures care for those that don’t have a voice. Chanel, Elvis, Lola, Mr Monkey and friends will have nourishing food, essential medications, and be kept warm because of this wonderful kindness. A huge thank you to Ricky and all of our supporters for continually standing by our sides 💗

Pioneers in compassion and campaigning for primates, Wild Futures is proud of its mission and achievements over the last 60 years. Losing our #sanctuary would be devastating. We are honoured that Peter Egan and Andrew Telling of Orange Planet Pictures were moved to make this short film. Our story is the monkeys' story - from suffering to sanctuary.

Our matched funding campaign is now live! For the next 8 days, your donations to us could be DOUBLED at no extra cost to you! We've already raised over half of our target, please donate today to ensure we reach it by the 2nd May. https://lnkd.in/g7w96vYi We need your help to raise £32,000 to help us care for our rescued primates in the coming weeks whilst we work on the next steps for our charity. The ever-increasing cost of living has become a relentless struggle for us as a small charity, in particular for the food we buy for the monkeys, the water we use for cleaning their enclosures every day, the heating and electricity that goes into keeping the monkeys indoor spaces warm and well lit, and the supplies needed to maintain enclosures and structures around our site. Whilst we are working hard behind the scenes to work out our next steps as a charity, we are still operating day-to-day as a working sanctuary, and we urgently need your help. Your donation will be DOUBLED at no extra cost to you! ❤️ £5 becomes £10 ❤️ ❤️ £10 becomes £20 ❤️ ❤️ £25 becomes £50 ❤️ Please donate today. Thank you
