East Sussex Wildlife Rescue and Ambulance Service needs help to replace an unreliable ambulance which is a lifeline to injured wildlife.
The ambulance, which carries equipment to deal with numerous incidents, is frequently breaking down.

Every year WRAS ambulances drive more than 50,000 miles across East Sussex and beyond to rescue sick, injured or orphaned wildlife casualties.

The ambulances attend between 2,000 and 3,000 incidents each year.

WRAS vehicles have attended more than 100 birds on the Sussex coastline so far in 2008.

There is equipment stored on board to deal with dolphins and seals and WRAS work with British Divers Marine Life Rescue.

If you would like to help by donating a vehicle, sponsoring a vehicle or by donating money to help buy a vehicle, contact Trevor Weeks on 07813 103474 or send a cheque payable to: East Sussex WRAS, to WRAS Ambulance Fund, Ash Cottage, 73 Friday Street, Eastbourne, East Sussex, BN23 8AY.
