WeCare Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation are an entirely voluntary organisation set up to rescue, rehabilitate and whenever possible release back into the wild. We have ever rising costs due to feed, vets bills and essential equipment in order to save the lives of many of our beloved British wildlife species. No one receives a salary and every penny raised is used to help the animals and birds in our care.
About Us & Our Founder
Hello, my name is Gill Lewis, and I relocated here in 2017. Formerly a vet nurse, I later managed a kennel, cattery, and training center, in addition to overseeing Crofters Rescue, a facility dedicated to rehabilitating and re-homing unwanted pets. Upon settling in the area, I swiftly gained recognition for my commitment to animal welfare.
Initially called upon to assist a kestrel and then an injured swan, word about my efforts gradually spread, giving rise to WeCare Wildlife. Over the past six years, it has evolved into a bustling home-run rescue. Tracey joined our cause four years ago and provides invaluable daily support. As our workload increased, the need for volunteers to collect animals for us became apparent. We continue to expand, with aspirations for future growth, including acquiring land and establishing a specialized center.
In addition to our rescue operations, we actively care for the local swan flock, providing winter feed for them. All our endeavors are self-funded through events and your generous donations. Our primary objective remains the rescue, rehabilitation, and eventual release of all animals under our care.
