Raising money to help us cover the costs of closing due to the avian flu outbreak and the loss of the 31 swans we were caring for.

Story

The temporary closure of Swan Lifeline in Windsor due to avian flu in early January - and the tragic loss of all 31 of the swans they were caring for - has meant that they have had many unforeseen costs due to the stringent DEFRA and APHA protocols. Their expenses have included everything from disinfectant, power washers & pumps to disposable bio-hazard clothing and netting. Please support them in their re-opening campaign, so they can get back to doing what they do best - rescuing, treating and releasing swans. They've rescued over 30,000 swans and cygnets so far. Help them to rescue another 30,000.
