Farplace Animal Rescue Reviews

Strict vegan policy and culture. Alientating anyone who doesn't have that ethos personally. Blunt, often entire lack of communication. - expect to be ignored Insane ideas of working enviroment and expectations. Almost all stores reporting a overwhelm of donations, which upper management has acknowledged. And absolutely NO room given from head office to pause donations. No empathy for situation as their personal greed will outweigh you, staff or shop preformances needs. this will cause pain, harm and mental distress. Really a lack of retail experience from the people running above, willing to push shops to be unsafe, dirty and crowded to potentially squeeze a few extra pennies out of it. Mould growth across shop locations. Ive never seen a level like this. Use and pushing shops to use AI generated images which greatly impacts our planet and wildlife. Counter-intutive to the core goal of animal protection of the charity. Shaming staff for speaking up about area managers/head office pushing, unfair loads and toxic language which was impacting staff health. putting store wide emails about not taking 'constructive critism personally' They would blame lower footfall caused by amber storm warnings and conditions on the shops not putting out enough stock/caring enough for example. Utter absence of training in store. No work life balance, having to do unpaid overtime to keep the store in REASONABLE condition

Head office or 'Gareth Edwards' the ceo have no regard for their staff unless they are vegan. On numerous occasions Ive heard his try to find excuses to fire people from most of his stores, or if they hand their notice in, putting them on garden leave and referring to them as snowflakes because they realised being abused for minimum wage just isn't worth it. The rescue is inside this man's house, so I highly doubt all money raised is being used the way people are told.
