Pet owners who call the PHS-DIRECT helpline seeking healthcare advice for their animals will have the added satisfaction of knowing that their call is automatically generating income for Tiggywinkles – the world's busiest wildlife hospital.

Every time a call is made to the line, a portion of the fee will be donated by helpline operators PHS-DIRECT to the hospital.

Tiggywinkles, the name by which the Wildlife Hospital Trust, a registered charity, is internationally known, treats more than 10,000 animal casualties every year, at its Buckinghamshire centre. Its doors are open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and receives British wildlife casualties; all of which are treated free of charge.

Rehabilitation at the hospital – using all available veterinary expertise – is followed by release, through a controlled programme, back to the wild, when the animal is fully fit. No sick, injured or orphaned wild creature is ever turned away.

Tiggywinkles is a great cause and we at PHS-DIRECT are proud to support it.
