Story

All of the red squirrel population on our beautiful island are precious and those that regularly visit our hide are no less so than any others.

It is important that we maintain a good supply of food at our hide to help to ensure the well being of the numerous squirrels that visit it on a daily basis.

A large bag of sunflower seeds which lasts anywhere between 2 and 4 weeks costs us around £20.00

A large bag of hazelnuts which lasts anywhere between 2 and 4 weeks costs us around £60.00

A bag of cuttlefish bones to crush and mix with the nuts and seeds for added calcium lasts 4 weeks and costs us around £10

All donations to support us in purchasing these items are very gratefully received.

If you love red squirrels and do not have access to any regular visitors of your own to feed then contributing to this fund raiser is a fabulous way to get involved in supporting their population here on The Island.

If you would like to support our efforts further then please consider adopting a red squirrel through us. You now have a choice between a physical or digital adoption pack and can explore these options by following this link:
