Norbrook Expands Conservation Efforts with Sheldrick Wildlife Trust Partnership in Kenya
Veterinary support helps protect East Africa’s orphaned elephants and endangered wildlife
Newry, 11 March, 2025: Norbrook is deepening its commitment to wildlife conservation by providing essential veterinary pharmaceuticals to the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. As the world’s leading orphaned elephant rescue and rehabilitation program, the Trust plays a critical role in protecting East Africa’s most vulnerable wildlife.
During a recent visit to the Sheldrick elephant sanctuary in Nairobi, the Norbrook leadership team witnessed the impact of the Trust’s work. The team had the rare opportunity to meet Maxwell, an endangered black rhinoceros who has been in the Trust’s care since birth due to blindness. Unable to survive in the wild, Maxwell has found a safe and permanent home at the sanctuary.

"By supporting the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, we are helping protect East Africa’s wildlife for future generations and to ensure a future for these incredible species and the natural ecosystems that support them."
"The Sheldrick Wildlife Trust’s commitment to protecting endangered wildlife is nothing short of remarkable," said Stephen Campbell, Norbrook Kenya’s Site Lead.
