Fundraising

Thank you for thinking about fundraising for Sea Watch Foundation. Fundraising is a fantastic way to contribute to our cause, what you raise helps us continue to protect and research whales and dolphins all around the UK.

Without our volunteers helping to raise money for our vital data collection we would not be able to continue our work. Raising just £20 can help towards the cost of an educational day visit to a school, and raising £50 can help fund a major research project, such as our Cardigan Bay Monitoring Project!

Make a donation

We rely on the generosity of supporters, such as yourself to help us continue our valuable research work. Your donations make a huge difference to our work, just £10 can help us purchase a new life jacket for our research interns.

Adopt a Dolphin

Every penny we receive through our Adopt a Dolphin scheme goes solely towards the research and protection of the bottlenose dolphins of Cardigan Bay. Our data are also used by the government authorities to help manage this unique habitat to ensure it remains a safe place for this very special group of dolphins for many years to come. By adopting a dolphin for as little as £3.50 a month you are making a choice to become a guardian for the UK bottlenose dolphin. To pick which dolphin you would like to adopt visit our Adopt a Dolphin website.

Amazon Wish List

We’ve put together a Wish List on Amazon so that donations can be made of items such as stationery, batteries, vital textbooks and much more! We are extremely grateful for all donations received as anything donating from the wish-list helps us continue our work and undertake more projects.
