We have had a very busy winter with injured/rescued wild birds of prey that have been handed in to us. With the support of our veterinary surgeon and dedication of staff, all surviving birds were released back to the wild. 

The team at Haven Falconry have been very busy this winter building an education room! Due to open by Easter, the education room will be interactive and informative for all ages, a great addition to our bird of prey centre! 

During winter months of 2017/18 we are in the progress of building an education room to promote not only birds of prey but wildlife in general on the Isle of Wight, to include interactive and video items. 

Jo has returned from her conservation trip to South Africa. Look out for her blog on our Facebook page!

Just arrived is our 2017 hatched female Golden Eagle! We are very excited to be introducing her to our 2018 displays!

Our centre Manager Joanna Ling is off to spend time in Kimberley, South Africa during October 2017 with the International Vulture Programme on conservation work. Whilst there she will be assisting in ringing approx.100 vultures and helping to build a rehabilitation aviary! Keep a look out on our Facebook page and Instagram for updates on her time there!

Haven Falconry are very proud to announce that we have been awarded a Certificate of Excellence for the second year running by Trip Advisor, a huge achievement as we only opened our doors last year in 2016!

Haven Falconry are delighted and proud to announce they have raised a total of £3000 for the International Vulture Programme in 2016, which has been handed over to Penny Smout BA, MSc,MBA, who is the Chief Executive Officer at Andover Hawk Conservancy. The money raised is to buy Poison Response Kits which are a valuable tool for the wardens and rangers in Africa who are working tirelessly in protecting animals and vultures from the poachers.

Our centre opened it's doors to the public in February and is proving a hit with our visitors, Trip Advisor comments are proving this as well as the lovely comments from visitors personally!

To celebrate our opening we have chosen a vital charity to continue to support, the International Vulture Programme (IVP). Our African Hooded Vulture 'Ringo' is our ambassador!

Following a productive meeting with our friends at the Hawk Conservancy, we are excited to announce our new fund-raising project! Haven Falconry plan to raise £3000 to fund 10 vital Poison Response Kits for the International Vulture Programme in Africa.

During 2016 we will be organising events and donation boxes to enable us to reach our target. You can of course donate directly to the IVP if you prefer to do this.

We are very excited to announce the Haven Falconry Bird of Prey Centre is at last under construction and we aim to be opening to the public by the end of 2015. The centre is being created within the grounds of the Isle of Wight Steam Railway in Havenstreet.

Our goal is to create a centre of excellence for the Barn Owl, to educate, promote conservation and help to preserve this magnificent British bird.

We look forward to welcoming visitors!
