Caring and Re-Homing for sick, injured, homeless & abused Birds and Small Animals
FRIENDS OF CLAWS'N'PAWS FACEBOOK GROUP NEWS
One of our volunteers in Peterlee has been extremely successful with her 'Cash for Cans' recycling group. People on her round save all their empty aluminium drinks cans and she collects them and trades them in and all the proceeds are donated 100% to Claws'n'Paws Hartlepool. This single project has reached its target of £1000 and continues to raise funds for ClawsnPaws Hartlepool. A Fundraising Achievement Certificate has been awarded. A VERY BIG Thank You from Claws'n'Paws Hartlepool to all the Peterlee volunteers. Your hard work is very much appreciated. It's great how cleaning up the environment like this helps birds and animals in the environment in return. If you have empty drinks cans and YOU save a few black bags full we can arrange to collect - simply email us at inf@clawsnpawsarc.com for more information. THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO IS COLLECTING. HAVE YOU JOINED THE FRIENDS OF CLAWS'N'PAWS HARTLEPOOL FACEBOOK GROUP? Based in Hartlepool. Anyone Over 18 can register to become a member of our Friends of Claws'n'Paws Facebook Group. Members of the group help birds and animals in their neighbourhoods. The group holds occasional events to which members are invited to support - You can join the Group on-line here - click link below:- LOOKING FOR A REHABILITATION AREA. We now have a strategy to open small Rehabilitation Area/Units in and around our Hartlepool area. This will enable us to give the wild birds and animals we take into foster care extra rest and recuperation before they are released back into the wild. This is called 'soft' release which is much better than 'hard' release where they are not given time to adjust before being released back into the wild. We are looking for small secure rural areas with good surrounding habitat. If you or anyone you know of who may be able to help then let us know by email to info@clawsnpawsarc.com . Meanwhile our work continues to expand in as many ways as possible, using existing unpaid voluntary resources. Our awareness campaigns continue to gain momentum and growth with the help of our Friends of Claws'n'Paws Group which is also growing in strength and numbers on-line at the Friends of Claws'n'Paws Hartlepool Facebook Page. We value all YOUR support. Every Donation & offer of help is extremely valuable to us. If YOU feel you can help (maybe by doing a sponsored activity) then please let us know. Just drop us an email at info@clawsnpawsarc.com with your idea details. Wild & domestic small birds & animals are now supported and cared for by using local foster carers and re-habbers, whilst our advice & rescue support work never stops. 'Working and Doing Together - Works' 
BIRD & ANIMAL RESCUE When members of the public ask for help we provide an on-line guidance and advice service to assist whenever possible. Our volunteers also keep a look out in their own neighbourhoods at key public places in the area, such as Parks, Beaches, Ponds, Lakes, Allotments and Reserves, to try and help ensure that all our birds and animals, domestic or wild are kept safe and free from abuse, cruelty or neglect. If YOU would like to get involved please get in touch by Registering with us. As a start point make sure you register onto our on-line Facebook Group. Click below:-
