Everything we do is for otters. We want to be able to help every otter that needs it. From otter cubs that weigh less than a can of fizzy drink to adult otters that need some TLC.
We have under 6 months to move our Specialist Otter Rehabilitation Centre, whilst still actively

Yesterday, we had another young otter through our doors. Unfortunately, she's in a bad way and is in our ICU unit. She currently weighs 3.6kg but is underweight. We'll share an update when we can.

Your donations, offers of help, and kind words have been a light in this very dark time.
Work has started on tearing down our centre and moving to our new land. But, our main focus is still the otters.

Did you know …?
Otters have ‘couches’ 🛋️🦦.
These are above-ground places where they rest during the daytime. You might spot areas of flattened reeds or long grass at the edge of the water forming a mat.
