BACKGROUND
KWR, which is a registered charity, was established back in early 2022.
The organisation later acquired a site in Kildare town for its base and opened it in July of that same year.
KWR’s centre is divided into a number of areas and pens, which are specially designated for a different type of wild animal.
It is currently led by its manager, Dan Donoher, who is also known for his previous work with Kildare Animal Foundation.
