Sue Critchley has been running the site for nearly 30 years
The founder of the Mann Cat Sanctuary has died.
It's after a 'long and courageous battle' with cancer.
Sue Critchley co-founded the sanctuary nearly 30 years ago.
What started as a small barn with a handful of cats has now expanded to be able to help hundreds of animals.
It's gained support and visitors from all over the world and she's said to being leaving behind a 'tremendous legacy'.
Announcing the news on social media the team says it'll continue in the enormous footsteps Sue has left behind.
It adds: "The sanctuary will of course continue to run and operate in the manner it has done so 'very much' in Sue's memory."
It is with very heavy hearts that me must announce that founder of the sanctuary, Sue Critchley, has passed away...
