DUKE OF EDINBURGH AWARD
CELEBRATING 30 Years of the 'Duke of Edinburgh Award'
The Volunteers at the Railworld Wildlife Haven are Proud to have helped with the DofE since 1995!
If you have already left a legacy to the Railworld Wildlife Haven Charity – Or if you intend to - We would like to thank you … If you are thinking about leaving a legacy, please email – info@railworld.org.uk
The ‘Railworld Wildlife Haven’ has been fortunate enough to have received three legacy’s over the years. The greatest without doubt was from our founder Rev Richard Paten – Estimates are that he dedicated over 25 years of his life and he paid for and acquired over 12 acres of inner-city land for the project and donated it to the Registered Charity! What an incredible legacy?
Celebrating our latest 2025 intake of DofE Youngsters
Recent Legacies are from Geoffrey G Steels, Chief Mechanical Design Draughtsman at Peterborough's Baker Perkins Company – He left his entire estate to the charity, this enabled us to pay off the loan that the volunteers had acquired to purchase, restore and install the River Nene footbridge: The bridge was named the ‘Geoffrey G Steel’ bridge, as a thank you for his kindness.
