Donations

Conservation is an expensive business, as is looking after a large collection of birds, and supporting a goodly number of staff. Donations are always incredibly welcome, and they can either be restricted – that is you state what you would like the funds spent on, or a general donation and we promise we will put it to good use.

 


 

There are so many ways to help the Centre with its long term aims and work. You can do this by becoming a member, or by making a donation of money or articles. We are always pleased to have nice plants or bulbs. We always need tools like rakes and brooms, which wear out, although I swear some of them grow legs and walk away! There are other items that are more expensive but very useful such as golf carts that the staff can use for moving heavier stuff around. Lawn Mowers and wheel barrows all wear out and are needed. Or perhaps you are changing kitchens and have units or sinks that might come in handy. So if you think you have something that might be useful, please drop us an email or phone us and we will chat about it and let you know if we can use it, (or if not us, someone else). In this throw-away world it’s nice to be able to utilise things more than once.

 

Some suggestions for specific donations:-

 

 

Care and treatment of injured wild birds
