Here in Worcester we have many swans in the sanctuary, especially in winter when food supplies in the countryside are running out. Our river does not have the water plants that are swans' natural food, so they depend very much on the kindness of local people and visitors to Worcester. Volunteers work hard to keep them from hunger. This is one place where you can make a donation towards buying mixed corn for volunteers to give at the daily lunchtime feed. If you enjoy seeing the swans in Worcester, do help us look after them, please.

A facebook page was set up in 2014 - The Swan Food Project - where you can find advice on feeding swans, and lots more.
