East Sussex WRAS was established as a voluntary group in 1996, but some of its
rescuers have been rescuing since 1985. The organisation was set up in order to
provide a front-line rescue service for wildlife casualties who unlike their
domesticated cousins, do not have owners to help look after them. WRAS deals
with calls from members of the public and other animal welfare organisations
like the Swan Sanctuary, Fox Project, Southdowns Badger Group, International
Animal Rescue, British Divers Marine Life Rescue, Sussex Bat Hospital and many
others. Our service is free of charge, we DO NOT charge - but the average cost
to the charity of responding to and dealing with a call-out is £85, which
includes veterinary bills, food, water, electric, bedding, caging, rescue
equipment, vehicles and fuel, phone bills and other necessary expenses, so we
appreciate any donations to help cover these costs. Every year between 3-4,000
calls are made to WRAS’s rescue line. Our rescuers are all volunteers and are
funded by kind donations from people like you. East Sussex WRAS is working
alongside the Animal Careers College to improve animal welfare.
