About Us

Oak and Furrows Wildlife Rescue Centre became a registered charity in 2006 and along with charity status came an increase in calls. As a result the Oak and Furrows has had to expand and develop the centre in order to cope with demand.

Annually the centre takes in approximately 3,000 wildlife casualties and receives between 6 and 7,000 telephone calls for help and advice, all this acheived by a dedicated team of people comprising of staff, volunteers, members and supporters, without whom it would not be possible.

Oak and Furrows operate a 24 hour Wildlife Rescue Service, 7 days a week, 365 days of the year. The centre relies on donations to survive and does not recieve any government funding.

Our aim is to provide care for wild animals in need so that they can be returned to the wild fit and healthy for a second chance. To do this, we are always in need of help. If you'd like to get involved, take a look at our Getting involved and Ways to Donate pages.

Please be aware that we are not open to the public due to the nature of our work and therefore visitors are not permitted unless by prior appointment. Call the centre on 01285 862439 if you need to visit the centres office for any reason.
