OILED SEABIRD

REHABILITATION FACILITY

hero_wave

Our Oiled Seabird Rehabilitation Facility is located in Stanley near to the veterinary department. The facility is developed and stocked to respond to a tier 1 oil spill scenario (i.e. up to 20 oiled birds). The facility includes an indoor washing room (5 sinks), indoor housing, kitchen, freezer room and an outdoor pool and enclosure.

The facility was developed through a combination of voluntary support and fundraising within the local community and through the military personnel and contractors at Mount Pleasant. Significant support was donated by Defence Infrastructure Ltd operating for the British Forces South Atlantic Islands, and Stanley firm Morisson (Falklands) Ltd.

We rely on volunteers within the community to help care and rehabilitate oiled seabirds and rely on local fishing companies and the government fisheries department to assist with supplying fish when necessary.
