January 2012 - The building units arrive!
The units are transported to Stanley at last.

Our philosophy with wildlife is to let nature take its course and not to disturb. However when man-made threats (such as oil pollution or marine debris) impact on wildlife we have the moral responsibility to step in and reduce the impacts to the best of our ability.

The units are transported to Stanley at last.

Planning and building permission have both been approved. Work started this week on preparing the site behind the Veterinary and Agricultural Department buildings. Morrisons Ltd have very kindly donated the labour for this work which is expected to last a few days.

We are pleased to annouce that we have been donated some structures by BFSAI that will be used and modified for the building. We hope we can transport them into Stanley and start the build in early summer 2011.
During 2009 the Joint Service Police Security Unit (JSPSC) Dog Section at British Forces South Atlantic Islands (BFSAI) Mount Pleasant Complex visited some oiled penguins in the progress of rehabilitation in Stanley at the current 'facility' - (an old shed with no electricity or water outside the veterinary department). This sparked a funding campaign to build a new purpose built oiled wildlife facility.
