Wingspan Birds of Prey Trust

Wingspan's focus includes conservation and education, while also promoting awareness of the environment, the importance of biodiversity and the unique cultural heritage surrounding birds of prey.

A successful conservation programme entirely crowdfunded for over 25 years. Wingspan remains one of the few registered charities in New Zealand that doesn’t receive any central or local government funding, so the support Wingspan gets is from visitors and sponsors is absolutely vital and hugely appreciated.

More than 1000 raptors helped, rehabilitated and captive bred for release nationwide, over 40 research papers published, thousands of volunteer hours, and more than 70,000 children have held a falcon on the gauntlet.

Bringing people and wildlife together.

Chip in, help Wingspan.
