“Swan Sanctuary, Shepperton”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

Originally run from the back garden of Dorothy Beeson’s home in Egham in the 1980s and the first purpose built site was rented from Runnymede Borough Council on a derelict allotment site in Field View, Egham. When the council wanted the land back a new site was needed with more permanent tenure, so a site in Shepperton, Middlesex was found and the new sanctuary built there in 2005. Despite a major setback when the Sanctuary was targeted by criminal fly tippers^[2] major developments were completed in 2010.

The Swan Sanctuary is recognised by other notable animal charities as a centre for the treatment of swans such as the RSPB,^[3] Battersea Dogs and Cats Home^[4] and Twycross Zoo,^[5] as well as the traditional swan keepers on the Thames the Worshipful Company of Dyers and the Worshipful Company of Vintners.^[6] Local supermarkets donate their waste food to help the sanctuary feed their patients,^[7]
