Let's help HART Wildlife Rescue
Fundraising for Hart Wildlife Rescue
Story
This time of year is the busiest at the rescue - currently they have around 140 (!) patients on site, including 38 hedgehogs, 35 ducklings, 17 young squirrels, 14 pigeons/doves, 12 small garden birds, 9 fox cubs, 6 tawny owl chicks, 3 corvids, 3 rabbits and 3 adult ducks, 1 baby stoat. (Last year they cared for a total of 1175 patients, over 600 of which were successfully rehabilitated and released.)
That's a lot of mouths to fill every day (and around the clock in the case of some baby hedgehogs, foxes, squirrels - so there are many volunteers getting up several times a night to feed!)
You can now help this amazing rescue and their volunteers in 2 easy ways:
1. donate here :) or....
2. Help them win £5000 for new facilities!
Five years ago due to huge demand in their services, they moved their facilities for staff and volunteers out of the hospital to make space for more injured animals. The "current staff room" is an old, small caravan without heating or running water so they are asking for funds for a new building to be used for meetings and breaks but also training and education.
They are in the running to receive £5,000 from the Calor Rural Community Fund towards the cost of a new building, and now they need as many public votes as possible by 17th June 2019. Please help them get there!

I know it is last minute, but I would be even happy when we get 100 pounds together (or more) until Saturday. Thanks for your help. All the Rescue animals will be really happy :)
