Thank you. What your membership helps to support…
CONSERVATION: Conserving birds of prey and owls involves conserving their prey, and the chain of life that supports them and their habitats. It is a 'bottom-up' process, and we demonstrate this practically on our reserves where good numbers of raptors and owls bear testament to the conservation methods we advocate.
ENTHUSIASM: We are passionate about birds of prey and owls, and we want to share that with everyone. You can follow the fortunes of our urban Peregrine nest boxes live on webcam and join our community on social media, or if you wish to visit our reserves, we are proud that Sculthorpe Moor in Norfolk is one of the most accessible-to-all reserves in the country.
RESEARCH: As top predators, birds of prey are barometers of the health of our environment. We investigate some of the issues surrounding these birds, such as identifying traffic collision hotspots or wing tagging Marsh Harriers to discover more about their movements and dispersal away from their breeding sites.
ADVICE: We work with landowners and land managers, providing advice on best practice habitat management for the provision of food and safe nesting and roosting sites for birds of prey and owls.
EDUCATION: We meet thousands of school children each year, nurturing in them a love for the natural world and an understanding of the role of predators in the environment. We also make education a core part of what we offer to all, believing that understanding birds of prey and owls will help alleviate the problems they face.
NEST BOXES: The Hawk and Owl Trust builds and sites high-quality nest boxes for a range of birds of prey and owls. You can Adopt a Box locally, following the outcome of 'your box' each year. You can buy boxes to site yourself, or you can apply to have them sited in suitable habitats on your own land and have them monitored annually.
Our Mission
We believe in a world where birds of prey and their habitats are safe, thriving, and accessible for all to experience and protect.
