PLEASE HELP US GET BACK ON THE ROAD

Campaign by Swan Support

One of our rescue ambulances has broken down and needs urgent repairs. With only one vehicle, we can't reach as many swans and waterfowl in need. Please help us get back on the road and continue saving lives. Every donation makes a difference.

We rescue, care and treat sick & injured swans within the Thames Valley and surrounding areas. We are also passionate about educating the public about the detrimental effect human behaviour & carelessness can have on swans and other water birds. We have over 20 years experience in rescuing swans.

Story

Alongside our dedicated volunteers, our vehicles are the lifeblood of our organisation - without either, we simply can’t do what we do.

Every week, we cover thousands of miles rescuing swans and other waterfowl in need - often in heart-breaking situations. Just this past week alone, we’ve travelled to Portsmouth, Southampton, Trowbridge, and Blenheim, as well as responding to our usual local rescues.

But all that vital travel takes its toll - and sadly, one of our ambulances has broken down and needs major repairs we just can’t afford right now.

This couldn’t have come at a worse time. Increased running costs are already a struggle, and vet bills have soared - especially due to the many deliberate acts of cruelty we’re called out to.

With just one vehicle, we simply can’t attend as many rescues as we need to.

We’re launching this urgent appeal to ask for your support. If you can donate anything at all, you’ll be helping us take one step closer to getting our ambulance back on the road — and back to saving lives.

Every donation helps – no matter how small.

Please share and support if you can.
