ABOUT US
The Wildlife Rescue and Ambulance Service (Enfield) was founded in 1985 to help wild animals and birds
The team provide a safe home for rescued wildlife who are sick, injured, or orphaned. Our rehabilitation programme aims to release animals and birds back into to the wild. There are however occasions where this is not possible and they take up permanent residence at Trent Park. Where specialist care is required our team will find a suitable home at a specialist sanctuary - part of our wider support network for animals and birds.
