I am planing to start this in support of my favourite local animal shelter
reposted from the Charity's web site
what they do why and where
"Burton Wildlife Rescue and Animal
Centre was founded in March 2008 in memory of Joyce and Bill Barlow who
were tragically murdered in October 2007. Their love of animals and the
countryside inspired the founder to establish the centre in their
honour. Lindsay (founder) is a qualified veterinary nurse and when not
at work likes to spend all her spare time caring for the animals.
The
sanctuary is located in Etwall with the hospital being located in
Burton on Trent. We provide a 24 hour emergency cover for british
wildlife in the staffordshire and derbyshire areas and also other areas
(see coverage areas below).
The rescue also
take in unwanted, injured and abandoned poultry and small domestic
animals. We assist the police with wildlife issues and emergencies as
well as working with other rescues around the UK.
We rescue ALL wildlife
regardless of species or status including foxes, squirrels, pigeons,
swans, rabbits, birds and canada geese. It is run from my home and is
entirely self funded. I am a qualified Veterinary nurse with over 12
years experience in caring for and rehabilitating wildlife, as well as
caring for domestic animals.
*We are an independant sanctuary and the day to day costs are funded by my wages and donations. We are not part
of or funded by The Staffordshire Wildlife Trust, St
Tiggywinkles, RSPCA or any other charity. If you are leaving an animal
with us, if you can, please leave a donation however small to help our
rescue centre function*
