Seal Pup Sponsorship
Every year, vulnerable grey seal pups arrive at our Seal Hospital in need of expert care, rehabilitation, and a safe place to recover before returning to the wild.
We couldn’t do our work without you!
Each pup season (typically September - March), we rescue seal pups in need of care from around the coastline. Seal pups cost on average £2000 - £3000 to go through rehabilitation, not including those that require extra special care.
By sponsoring a seal pup, you'll become part of their incredible journey while directly supporting the vital rescue and rehabilitation work carried out at the Sanctuary.
Choose from three sponsorship levels and help make a real difference to the lives of rescued seals.
Why Your Sponsorship Matters
Your sponsorship helps fund:
- Rescue and emergency response
- Veterinary treatment
- Daily feeds and nutritional care
- Rehabilitation pools and facilities
Together, we can give every rescued seal pup the best possible chance of returning to the wild.
Join our supporters helping to protect Cornwall's grey seals and be part of an unforgettable rehabilitation journey.
