The North Wales Bird
Trust is a registered Charity no: 1085403. All the money raised for our work
is in the form of voluntary donations from
the public and private sectors, and every last penny goes into
caring for the birds and our
education
programmes.
We have received a super grant from the National Lotteries Charity
Board for the equipment urgently needed in our new Bird Hospital,
intensive care unit and hand rearing facility for orphaned birds.

We accept and
care for tropical birds and birds of prey at the Sanctuary. Where
it is possible, we release all injured birds of prey back to the wild
after rehabilitation. Sometimes this is simply a matter of a few days
but in some cases, for the badly injured raptor, it may mean an extended
stay at the Sanctuary whilst the bird regains its natural functions.
The birds we see are suffering, many in need of complicated and skilled
care. The majority of them have been injured either directly or indirectly
by man's disrespect for the natural world. Whilst we would admit that
our lives are richer for having personally known each animal, caring
for them is to immerse yourself in worry, both about the individual
patient and about the human disregard that has brought them to this
end. We as a society have come to regard wildlife, in fact all of
the natural world, as our own playground.
