Birds On The Edge will only succeed with your support and that of the wider community in Jersey. We hope that we can increase respect for our Island’s wildlife and beautiful coastline and in order to best achieve this we need your help to spread the message widely so please encourage as many people as possible to visit this site and to learn about our coastlands and the work we are doing. Needless to say, the project will always need financial and practical support too.
