Wire Fence Supports UK Wild Otter Trust with £1,256.64 of Cost-Price Fencing to Rebuild Their Home

On 9th October, Wire Fence supplied £1,256.64 of cost-price fencing to the UK Wild Otter Trust in North Devon, helping the charity rebuild its otter rehabilitation centre following the need to relocate from its previous site.

Otter Trust Needs to Relocate Home

On 2nd October 2025, the UK Wild Otter Trust announced that it needs to relocate its rehabilitation centre in North Devon. The charity has been given notice to vacate its current site, which includes otter enclosures and a hospital, and must dismantle and move all facilities while continuing to care for the animals.

A new site has been generously offered by a supporter, and the Trust is now nearing completion of its rebuilt facilities and enclosures, which are expected to be fully ready by April.

Wire Fence’s Support

As the Trust prepared to leave its original site – with the existing enclosures, originally built with support from Wire Fence, due for demolition – we were keen to help once again.

On 9th October 2025, fencing materials were supplied with a discount of £1,256.64 to help construct the new rehabilitation enclosures. This fencing has formed the basis for at least 20 secure spaces where otters can be safely housed during their recovery.

UPDATE: New Enclosures Now Taking Shape

Rebuilding is now well underway at the new site, and the otter enclosures are almost finished.

Recent images shared by the UK Wild Otter Trust show the new enclosures taking shape, marking a milestone in the relocation and ensuring that vital rehabilitation work can continue without interruption.

Comment From UK Wild Otter Trust

Having a great collaboration with the wire fence company has allowed us to complete the full stages of our new otter rehabilitation centre enclosures. Without this support everything is harder to achieve so we are eternally grateful to all involved got this support, allowing many more otters to be rescued and released after the rehab programs are completed.

Dave Webb, Founder/ CEO of UK Wild Otter Trust

It’s amazing to see the new enclosures taking shape, and we’re thrilled that our fencing can help create safe spaces for these rescued otters. Huge congratulations to Dave and the team for all their hard work – we can’t wait to see the completed site in April!
