The Wellington Bird Rehabilitation Trust is entirely self-funded except for donations from generous and caring members of the public.

We always welcome donations, whether it is giving your money, time, spreading the word about what we do, or donating some materials.

Cash donations​ help us pay for veterinary bills, food and medications, supplies of all types, upkeep of our hospital, aviaries, and grounds, and many other aspects of our work. Any amount you can give is a tremendous help!
