Oxfordshire Wildlife Rescue (OWR) has successfully acquired land for a new wildlife hospital, concluding a six-year campaign. The charity aims to commence construction on the dedicated facility by May 2027.
The planned hospital will feature specialized wards for various animals and a nursery. This initiative represents OWR's commitment to providing enhanced care for the more than 200 species they support.
Beyond animal welfare, the new site is envisioned as a training hub for future veterinarians. This aspect is considered equally vital to the charity's mission of wildlife conservation.
OWR has raised £100,000 towards the project and is seeking community support for sponsorship and volunteer assistance.
