ORGANISATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS
"...the new
system will
save us money
and reduce
our impact…"
With water at the centre of the climate crisis, its efficient use at our wildlife centres
is critical. Our West Hatch Wildlife Centre provides vital rehabilitation facilities for
hundreds of injured or sick water-based animals and birds every year, including
78 seals in 2023. But, increasingly, there will be times when water supply is scarce.
Having a circular water treatment system already in place, we're working to find ways
of improving water security while also protecting the environment.
"If all goes well, the new system will save us money to help more animals, while
reducing our environmental and climate impact," says centre administrator Sarah
Bulpin. "So it's a win-win for animals and the climate."
Win-win for animals and the climate
IN 2023 OUR CENTRES PROVIDED 577,227 DAYS OF CARE FOR ANIMALS NEEDING
TREATMENT, REHAB AND SUPPORT TO RECOVER.
