THE POWER OF THE PEOPLE !
YOU HAVE SAVED US!
THE WILDLIFE RESCUE AND HEDGEHOG HOSPITAL IS OFFICIALLY SAFE !!
🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
The community has spoken loud and clear, you refused to let our wildlife rescue disappear and with this kind of backing from you all, we are becoming better than ever!!
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. 💖
Words genuinely cannot capture our gratitude to every single person whose donated, shared and stood behind our little rescue.
You didn’t just meet our goal to keep our doors open and our rescue wheels turning – you blew it completely out of the water, raising four times the amount we needed to survive!! 🥹🙏
Because of your extraordinary generosity, the communities wildlife rescue and hedgehog hospital is now completely and utterly safe from closure. 🥳🙏
Every single one of you who donated has done that and we are completely and utterly overwhelmed with the response we have had.
With everybody’s help, we’ve not only managed to stay open, we actually have the ability now to expand AND replace all of our old, secondhand equipment. 
Hedgehog Hospital expansion:
An extra 4 brand-new specialist hedgehog units have been ordered and are being delivered this week allowing us to care for even more patients in a top-tier clinical environment, plus a further 4 are on order and being made specially for us.
Outdoor pre-release pens:
We are also able to build specially designed pre-release enclosures for the hedgehogs so that our growing hoglets can take their first few steps outside, with the continued ongoing support from us, and adults to build up their strength, all in a safe environment while we observe that they have the skills and ability to safely transition back to the wild when they are big enough and strong enough for full release.
We are also expanding our specialist raptor facilities creating more outside spaces for once injured and recovering birds of prey to also help them to transition back to the wild safely.
Brand-new equipment:
We can finally retire that painfully old and secondhand equipment and replace it with brand new reliable, modern equipment that means we can now quickly diagnose things like parasite burdens, blood smears and skin scraps on-site.
Every animal that comes through our doors are tested for parasites and with our new microscope we can now efficiently diagnose any unwanted visitors and treat them quickly and effectively, helping to save even more lives and get them back to the wild faster.
Thank you for every single pound, every single share, all the wishlist donations that came, and still are, flooding in and every kind word.
You’ve given our local wildlife a secure future and you have given us the greatest gift of all knowing that you are all behind us and that we can keep on fighting for those without a voice, every single day.
With more love, ridiculous amount of relief, happy tears and an overwhelming gratitude than mere words can ever express....
from all the animals and all of us at Wild Surrey Wildlife Rescue.... You did it!!
Thank you just doesn't seem enough...
