Would you like to be present at the release of a rehabilitated bird back to the wild, or go tracking with our research students?

By becoming a Friend of Hilary's Bird of Prey Hospital, you will have the opportunity to help support this aspect of the Trust’s work.

The running costs of the hospital are around £139.00 per day, and your Friend's fee will go directly to funding the care and veterinary costs.

The hospital cares for over 150 Birds of Prey a year, some of which are rehabilitated back to the wild.In addition, it is a centre of excellence providing training to students from all over the world.

As a Friend, as well as watching a bird's release or help tracking, you will receive a quarterly newsletter detailing the hospital's activities, a Friend's certificate, your name displayed outside the hospital, a copy of our members' newsletter Hawktalk and an admission ticket for two adults.

You can become a Friend for your own pleasure, or it can make a wonderful present for a special occasion such as birthday, wedding, retirement or anniversary.

The Friends scheme is available both to individuals and to groups.

The cost of becoming a friend is £139.00 for a year, and this can be renewed annually.

If you are interested in becoming a friend of the hospital, please print and complete the application form below, and post, with your payment, to Tracey Smith, The Hawk Conservancy Trust, Andover SP11 8DY. Alternatively you can fax it to the office on 01264 773772, and pay through our online shop.
