🦊🦉 Vendor Spotlight: Kildare Wildlife Rescue 🌿
Meet the incredible team at Kildare Wildlife Rescue — where every rescued hedgehog, swan, and pine marten gets a second chance at life. This volunteer-run charity is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, and return of injured, sick, and orphaned wildlife in Kildare and beyond, with over 100 dedicated volunteers working to minimise the suffering of Ireland’s wildlife.
Since launching in 2022, KWR has directly helped over 2,200 animals — from foxes and otters to owls and swans — and responded to over 3,200 wildlife casualty reports in their first eight months alone.
Licensed by the National Parks and Wildlife Service, they operate out of their Kildare Town facility and licensed foster homes across Kildare, Dublin, and Meath, offering 24/7 veterinary care and specialised enclosures for animals in need.
Their mission is simple: rescue, rehabilitate, release. 💚
You can meet them in person at the Baldoyle Bay Biosphere Festival on 16 May 2026! Come chat with some of their volunteers, make a donation, pick up some merch, and find out more about how you can help protect Ireland’s wildlife. 🦔
Found an injured animal? Email [email protected] — their team is on call 7 days a week.
