Did you know

the Rare Breeds Centre

is a charity?

If you are a UK taxpayer and you make a donation that is 10% more than the admission price, the government will give us 25p for every £1 of your entrance fee. This is called a gift aid visit and it makes a massive difference to attractions like the Rare Breeds Centre. It helps us with the work we do at the Canterbury Oast Trust to support people with learning disabilities who are in our care.

Click our big green button if you want to book for an ordinary admission ticket or for a special event.
