  About the Hawk and Owl Trust  
 
The Hawk and Owl Trust
 
 
  Owls, hawks, eagles, falcons - magnificent birds like these symbolise freedom and wild places. The Hawk and Owl Trust is dedicated to ensuring that birds of prey survive in the wild for future generations to enjoy.

Founded in 1969 because of concerns about the alarming decline in numbers of peregrines and other raptors, today we work to conserve all wild birds of prey and their habitats in the face of mounting human pressures.

What we do
The Hawk and Owl Trust works to protect and conserve all wild birds of prey and their habitats, principally through:
  • Creating, managing and monitoring habitats
  • Practical research into species and habitats
  • Imaginative education about species and habitats

    The habitat theme runs through all our work, because by conserving the places where owls and other wild birds of prey nest and feed, we also support many associated species - from Brown Hare to Water Vole, Grey Partridge to Small Skipper - a whole variety of wildlife.

    If you love birds of prey, and care about their conservation, then please join The Hawk & Owl Trust. With the Trust's local groups you can volunteer in many ways, and even join in yourself with the creation and monitoring of sites for birds like Barn Owls. Your involvement, membership fee and donations to the Trust will help to continue their dedicated work to conserve birds of prey across the UK, and beyond.
