Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. During lockdown I spent more time walking in my local area  - London Newham and surrounding boroughs. This is when my love for Wildlife, particularly waterfowl grew.  In Summer 2019 I became a watcher for the Swan Sanctuary which means I’m part of a group that regularly checks the local area to make sure our waterfowl are safe and report any that are injured or in distress.  The Sanctuary does not receive government funding and is run entirely on donations from the public and corporate  sponsorship, they provide treatment, care and rehabilitation.  If a bird is disabled and unable to return to the wild, lifetime care is provided at the Sanctuary.  Without the invaluable knowledge and perseverance of the incredible Volunteers who work tirelessly 24/7 - 365 days a year, the Sanctuary would not exist and thousands of birds would perish unnecessarily.  In January I’m doing the 26 mile winter walk in aid of their charity and would love to raise as much money as possible.  Please help me to support them. A charity very close to my heart. 

Thanks in advance.
