Story
I met the guys at Wiltshire Wildlife Hospital about 8 or 9 years ago and was amazed how dedicated and hardworking they are. Even as I write this late at night - about 11:30 pm - I am txting Marilyn for details and she is still hand feeding baby pigeons! Shen then has the deer to do before she can turn in. This is just a typical night at the Wildlife Hospital.
We have been helping the hospital with their fundraising efforts for several years now by running the dog show and doing the sound at their annual fete. However, we know what they raise at the fete is just a drop in the ocean compared to their running costs. These costs include feed, bedding, site maintenance, services and so on.
I have never known Wiltshire Wildlife Hospital to turn away an animal in need, whatever the personal cost especially in terms of time. It is because of their inspiring dedication that I want to help raise some extra funds for them. They are trying to build a new nursery that is warmer and better equipped than the current room to one side of the draughty barn. All funds I raise will be sent to them to support this great addition to their capability.
I would really like to say thank you to anyone that helps me raise funds for these wonderful people.

I have been around animals all of my life and worked with them over half of my adult life. Whether domestic or wild, animals are special to me, but it's our nation's wildlife that often suffers without a caring 'owner' to provide food, care and love.
