In 2014, Helen Cooper set up Big Red Rooster as she had for many years been rescuing Chickens and especially Cockerels. Helen did this as she had spent several years working with Chickens and seeing first hand the plight of unwanted Cockerels. After finding out there was no UK rescue for Cockerels, she was about to change that! Big Red Rooster was started in 2014. After several years of taking in and sometimes re-homing Cockerels for people for various reasons, we decided to make it an official and registered as a not-for-profit organization. We did this to enable us to raise funds, to allow is to expand and ultimately be able to help rescue and find homes for them!

We are thrilled to welcome Helen Cooper to our show for the very first time!!
