Our Story
Buttercups first began when Bob and Valerie Hitch agreed to take two unwanted goats into care in 1989. A few months later the RSPCA asked if they could accept another goat in need of urgent care and so it went on, and before long goats suffering from cruelty and neglect were arriving from around the county. By 2003, with so many goats in our care, the sanctuary became a registered charity.
