VOLUNTEERS NEEDED AT OUR TREATMENT CENTRE
DO YOU HAVE A FEW HOURS TO SPARE A WEEK
?
We are always looking for people who can help at our
Treatment Centre. Whether it is a morning a week, or a
couple of hours once a month, we would love to hear from
you. We have a good, enthusiastic team who cover a wide
variety of tasks including preparing food, cleaning
buckets, food troughs and pens, hosing down pens,
sterilising feed bowls, cleaning the treatment
centre/windows, etc. We would also welcome help with
DIY, gardening, painting, etc. Swan handling is
sometimes necessary and training on handling techniques
will be given - it is not, however, compulsory. 
We need help with the morning feed which is normally
prepared at around 9am and takes approx. 1 - 1 1/2 hours
to complete. If you could help for a day a week or a day
a month, do please let us know. Weekends are normally
especially busy with rescues and we always need extra
hands to help. If you have a spare hour on a Saturday or
Sunday, particularly 8.30 - 9.30, please call Wendy on
01753 859397.We are also always pleased to hear from
people who can help on an 'as required' basis to cover
for regular volunteers who are on holiday or off
stick.
We regret that we are unable to accept the help of
unders 16s unless accompanied by a parent or guardian.
The jobs are many and varied. The swans are very
rewarding to work with and very rarely aggressive. Share
their fight for survival in today's harsh world. The
swans are all individuals with captivating personalities
but they need (y)our help in their hour of need. Help us
to help the swans. After all, a river or lake without
swans is like a room without furniture
Come and join our team - call Wendy on 01753
