Help Luke and Wye Valley Falconry
Donation protected
Hi - my name is Luke Mammatt and I own and operate Wye Valley Falconry in Herefordshire.
I opened in April 2019 and in this short time have become the number 1 outdoor attraction in Herefordshire on TripAdvisor with many high ratings, an achievement I am very proud of.

As we all know, a year later in April 2020 Covid struck. For this second year it looks as though I will have had to close my doors for a full 7 months as the leisure sector has been so badly affected. Due to a variety of quirks my business does not qualify for any government grants whatsoever so I am desperately looking for financial assistance from other sources to keep the business afloat.
Wye Valley Falconry is not a traditional visitor centre: I offer private experiences to clients; I deliver educational visits to retirement homes, schools, colleges and the Scout and Brownie movement; and I perform displays at weddings, game fayres, festivals, country shows and fetes. As all these activities involve either groups of people or getting close to people my whole diary has had to be cancelled over this time.

It would be greatly appreciated if you could help me in these difficult times as all funds will go towards the care and welfare of my team of owls, hawks and falcons. Your generous donation would not only help this unique attraction in Herefordshire survive but also ensure a young man’s dream of bringing joy and memorable encounters to everyone who books a bird of prey experience.
Thank you very much and stay safe everyone.
