May I be the first to wish each and every one of you a very Merry Christmas, and a huge Thank You for a further year of most welcome support.

It is through this continued assistance that so many of you freely give, that WE are able to continue to help so many of the wild birds around us;

Some of that help is direct in care, rehabilitation and release.

Some is by providing protected nature reserves for both fully fit and partially-fit birds and wildlife to live out their lives in safety.

Furthermore some of this assistance comes indirectly to the bird in distress through being able to assist 'you' whether an individual, company, society, vet, and even other sanctuaries with guidance from our vast amount of experience built up over nearly sixty years.

Long may it continue. Best wishes to you all for a safe and enjoyable Christmas.

Nigel
