There has been an outbreak of avian influenza (bird flu) in Stanhope, Bishop Auckland.

Avian influenza (bird flu) is an infectious disease of birds caused by a variety of subtypes of the influenza A virus. The risk to humans is very low.

There is a current outbreak of the disease in the Stanhope area. The Government has provided more information at: https://www.gov.uk/animal-disease-cases-england/bird-flu-near-stanhope-bishop-auckland-county-durham-aiv-2025-slash-46?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=govuk-notifications-topic&utm_source=12ff7060-8eae-4a5b-8a68-ecba16a8cc5e&utm_content=immediately this includes information on a protection zone currently in place in the affected area.

All bird keepers (whether you have pet birds, commercial flocks or just a few birds in a backyard flock) must keep a close watch for signs of disease. Good biosecurity is essential to limiting the spread of diseases such as Avian Fu in an outbreak.

Avian flu circulates naturally in wild birds worldwide and can be transmitted from bird to bird. Avian Flu is seasonal as we see more cases reported over the winter period than at other times of the year.

There is a bird flu prevention zone currently in place for the UK. A map of the affected area is being regularly updated: https://defra.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=8cb1883eda5547c6b91b5d5e6aeba90d

Symptoms of the disease include diarrhoea, respiratory issues such as coughing and gaping beak, as well as reduced egg production and loss of appetite.

If you suspect any type of avian flu, by law you must report it immediately to 03000 200 301.

If you have any concerns about the health of your birds, seek advice from your vet immediately.
