The World Owl Centre

Development Starts 2025

All of the WOT Trustees are very excited about the project at Newton Rigg which will be without any doubt one of the best centres of its type in the UK. Visitors will experience a “magical mystery tour” along meandering pathways with the aviaries for the birds being built in between and around the trees that are already on site so there will be a surprise around every corner. The accommodation for the birds will show the natural environment of the particular species of owl in order to provide them with the best possible environment for their welfare and act as an educational tool at the same time. The Centre Building provides us with Lecture Rooms, Resource Rooms, Tearoom, Shop, Office space and the all important Hospital and rehab quarters.
