Welcome to Chichester, UK.

Brent Lodge is a superb animal and bird rescue centre responsible for the survival of thousands of wild birds and animals. One of their specialities is in nursing hedgehogs back to full health before releasing them back into the wild. They are totally dependent on voluntary donations and receive no government funding. Although they have enough funds to effect a temporary reprieve from closure they still desperately need to raise £30,000 to get back in the black. Any sum you can give them, however small, will enable them to continue to keep up the fantastic level of work they have been doing for the past 35 years that is so important for local wildlife. If you can help in any way please click www.donations.brentlodge.org NOW. Thank you.
