We are a conservation charity and do not have the facilities to look after injured animals.

Seasonal notice:
If you see an uninjured, feathered baby bird out of the nest, please pick up the bird carefully and put it in a safe place off the ground and away from danger such as a hedge. Under no circumstances remove it from the area you find it in, as the parents continue to feed their chicks even out of the nest for up to three weeks.

If you have found an injured or distressed animal, the following organisations should be able to provide advice or assistance to you:
