Support from and for our local community

As a non for profit organisation, we appreciate all the support that we receive from our local community.  These are some of the people who are able to support us, and whom we in our turn have been able to support.

Ipswich City Council have supported us with a grant to purchase 12 pairs of long arm loppers for our carers to use when gathering forage for the wildlife - thankyou Ipswich City Council. 

The Rescue Collective have very generously donated food stuffs, caring baskets, milk, cages and other medical equipment to support our wildlife carers.
