Last year (2023), Ren's Wildlife Hospital helped over 600 wild animals, including foxes, deer, hedgehogs, gulls, rooks, crows, owls, pigeons, rabbits, hares, and mice. Our primary goal is to rehabilitate these animals with the hope of returning them to the wild.
On arrival the first step for any animal is to ensure they are medically fit and to do this we work closely with our local vets to provide first-class medical care. Once they are medically cleared, we move onto the crucial step of rehabilitation. This, all too often neglected stage, is essential to ensure the animal is physically and psychologically prepared for life back in their natural habitat. Releasing an animal too soon is not only cruel but also illegal. Over the last few years, we have developed a variety of outdoor pre-release pens that help animals regain their strength and confidence. We are always looking to expand these facilities.
Our work doesn't stop at animal care. We also invest a lot of effort into ensuring the charity operates efficiently and safely. This involves providing excellent training for our volunteers, securing adequate insurance, and becoming members of regulatory organisations such as the Fund Raising Regulators and One Voice for Animals. These efforts help us adhere to and promote the highest standards of care and governance in all our work.
