Organic lawn feed advice

Hi,
I have a lot of wildlife in my yard, but my lawn also needs a boost over winter, and I don't want to damage the infrastructure in my garden.
We have many birds, hedgehogs and squirrels, which often bounce around in our garden.
I wonder if anyone has any experience with organic/natural lawn feed or fertilisers - and if they are even worth using.
Not sure if it's ok to post links here, but for reference only, here is what I'm looking at...

for the fag ends of the aristocracy.
The stuff you're looking at is relatively expensive.
Pelleted Poultry Manure has similar NPK values and is a lot cheaper.
It good for any leafy plants - grass, lettuce etc
I use it on my lawn in the spring and sometimes use bonemeal in the autumn to strengthen the roots
e.g

Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
This is primarily for use in my back yard, and the lawn area is about 15 x 15 metres (roughly).
The soil is quite clay based once you get about 1/2 a foot down (I guess that from how thick and difficult it is to dig).
