We are a UK based, non-profit organisation that recruits, equips (with carriers & disinfectant) and funds fuel costs for a national network of wildlife-loving Volunteer Drivers who all give up their time (and use their own vehicles) to respond at short notice to help get injured/poorly UK wildlife to emergency care ASAP.

​

We aren't 'speciesist' - We love all wildlife species equally and reckon they ALL deserve a chance to get to a rescue to get the care they need, to return to their lives/families in full health.  We all have our place in our wonderful planet.

​

​

WHAT DOES THIS LOOK LIKE?

 

A. When a Volunteer Driver has joined our database, we get them equipped with 2 carriers (one large, one small) and Defra approved disinfectant.

​

B. Once our Drivers are set up with the right equipment, we allocate Drivers to 'Drivers Teams', to support their local Wildlife Rescues & Vet Practices. (We only allocate Drivers to those Wildlife Rescues who are either large centres or who have the Wildlife Care Badge).

C. We make a note of if the Driver would like to have more hands on training (from the Wildlife Rescues they're driving for - to become trained in capture/containment & in first aid, for example). 

 

D. We make sure that our Drivers know the basics about welfare during transport (eg. Silence, securing the carrier with a seatbelt, no open windows, having a towel over the carrier so that the casualties can be relaxed in darkness until they reach medical help).

 

E.  Once a Driver has transported a casualty, if they want fuel expenses covered, WE reimburse the fuel expense (not the Wildlife Rescue/Vet Practice).
