About
For the Leigh Valley Hawk and Owl Sanctuary 2020 was intended to be the year of the new vehicle. Then covid ruined everyone's plans. Our work commitments dropped by 90% and Martin's Job-Keeper payments barely covered the upkeep and well-being of our birds. The van is the center of operations here at Leigh Valley. It transports us and the birds to demonstrations and, in the event of a catastrophic bushfire in our rural, woodland location, would be the primary evacuation vehicle for the birds. It is also used for food supply runs, trips to the field to exercise our flight trained birds of prey and the many and various jobs associated with running a sanctuary. The current van is nearly 20 years old and has travelled well over 400, 000 Km. It is very tired and in desperate need of either major renovation or, ideally, replacement. Please help us upgrade our bird’s limo!!
Keep those birds in the air mate.
