We are proud that our website helps so many people to find help from a wildlife rescue. But we’re also conscious that this puts enormous pressure on rescues who are all overwhelmed and reliant on donations to continue.
Our £1 for Wildlife campaign aims to raise funds to support the work of UK wildlife rescues. Each month we will choose an eligible* UK wildlife rescue to pass the donations on to. Mostly, we will choose a rescue at random but we may also make some targeted contributions where a rescue needs particular support. If you’ve found our site helpful, you can also choose, if you wish, to donate to support our work as well.
NB: If you’re looking to support a specific wildlife rescue, perhaps because they helped you with an animal you found, please donate to them directly.
You can use our PayPal button to quickly donate £1 to support the work of UK wildlife rescues. Please use the other options below if you wish to also support the work of HelpWildlife, add Gift Aid, or donate more than £1.

Ok, they are going to need some help from a rescue.
The quickest way to get help is to search our wildlife rescue directory at directory.helpwildlife.co.uk.
If you've not been able to find the help you need, you can continue below to request help from our volunteers. They may take up to an hour to respond so checking the directory for yourself first will save time.
We have a library of articles aimed at helping you decide when and how to help. You can view these at helpwildlife.co.uk/advice.
Common issues we are contacted about which are covered in these articles include
Foxes with Mange
When to Help Baby Birds
Birds in Chimneys
Birds Flying into Windows
Ducks Nesting in Unsuitable Places
Checking these articles first, and proceeding to search directory.helpwildlife.co.uk if rescue help is needed, takes some of the pressure off our busy volunteers. If you can't find the help you need in our advice library and rescue directory, you can continue below to ask our volunteers for bespoke help.
