Avian influenze update - 20/03/2022
We regret to inform that currently, due to a potential local outbreak of Avian Influenza, we are unable to attend or admit seabirds, waders and waterfowl until further notice because of the increased Avian flu risk and the need to protect both wild and our resident birds already on site. If you come across a sick or injured seabird, wader or waterfowl please call the RSPCA on 03001234999, or for dead or sick captive birds call DEFRA notifiable disease number 03000 200301, please do not touch, pick up, or transport them. We are happy, as always, to give advice so do feel free to call our regular number 01278 783250.
Rescue, rehabilitate, release
We are here 8am to 8pm, 365 days a year to rescue sick, injured or orphaned wildlife across the South-West of England. If you find an animal in need of urgent attention outside these hours please contact your nearest veterinary surgeon. We rely entirely on the generosity of our supporters and receive no government funding; please consider making a donation to help save British wildlife.
