Support Us

THANK YOU

We couldn’t do our work without you. Every year, we rescue seal pups in need of care from around the coastline. From wounds, to entanglement to malnourishment; there are lots of reasons why seal pups might need rescuing.

Seal pups cost on average £2000 to go through rehabilitation – and this doesn’t include those that require special care, such as Ted who came to us with a broken jaw and needed surgery or Harry who was so entangled in netting his wounds were life threatening. Pups such as these need more care and this can be pricey – we had more than 50 rescues during the 2021/22 season, and the costs add up!

We are grateful for any donation received. Your money could go a long way to helping our animals get the care they really need.

£10 Provides toys to enrich our residents and keep them entertained
£20 Buys an bottle of Zoolite (essential vitamins)
£50 Pays for a full vet visit for rescued seal pups
£100 Feeds a pup in the hospital for 5 days
£500 Covers a lifesaving surgery for one of our animals

Or why not get your workmates involved and come up with an idea together? You could even ask your company to match whatever you raise for an extra boost.
