This famous hospital on the Cornish Cliffs was founded in 1928 by the Misses Dorothy and Phyllis Yglesias when their younger sister found an injured Jackdaw in her garden.
Over the years the Sanctuary has become famous, especially so during the Torrey Canyon disaster in 1967, when over 8,000 oiled sea birds passed through the Hospital. Each year approximately 1,000 birds of over 50 species are treated at the hospital.
