About
We work with land and sea birds in need of care. Our aim is to treat and rehabilitate the birds in our hospital and return them to the wild.
Founded by Dorothy and Phyllis Yglesias in 1928 when their younger sister found an injured jackdaw in her garden and ran the hospital.
Achieved charity status in 1976. We take in sick, injured, orphaned and oiled birds from members of the public, vets and other wildlife establishments.
We provide care and support for many different species of bird – from herring gulls to robins, from magpies and crows to pigeons and doves.
We aim to rehabilitate these birds so that they can be released back into the wild. Also contributing to scientific studies as and when requested.
We receive no government funding our income is purely from fundraising, donations and legacies.
