Anniversary Appeal 2025

2025 marks a special milestone for East Sussex WRAS, and we need your support to ensure our charity continues to thrive.

In September 2024, our founder Trevor Weeks celebrated 40 years of helping wildlife. This dedication has been the foundation of WRAS's success, and in March 2025, we proudly mark 30 years as a community charity. Over the past four decades, we've rescued and cared for more than 75,000 wildlife casualties‚ a staggering achievement made possible only through the generosity of people like you.

Will you help WRAS continue meeting the needs of today and grow to tackle the challenges of tomorrow? Your support is crucial in helping us care for thousands of animals every year and to expand our capacity to meet increasing demand.

Donations can be made by clicking the button below. As a special thank you, those who donate £30 or more through this appeal can request a free anniversary pin badge, whilst stocks last. Details on how to claim your badge will be included in your email receipt.

To find out more about our journey so far, the incredible milestones we've reached, and some of the many lives we've saved, click through to our History Page below.

Throughout 2025, we'll be hosting a range of exciting events and activities to celebrate our anniversary. Be sure to check back regularly for updates on what's happening and how you can get involved.
