Support Us
Help us deliver our vital conservation and education work
It is only via support from our generous donors and members that we are able to continue delivering our valuable work.
As a conservation and education charity, we are extremely grateful for support in any form. Donations, gifts in kind and other support has helped us to pay for dedicated education, outreach and conservation roles, delivering programmes of work to protect our fragile environment. Funded events and resources help to share fascinating insights, inspiring future ambassadors – of all ages – for our marine world. Donations and online fundraising raise vital income to help cover our core costs, meaning we are able to reach more people and plan for the future.
There are a number of ways that you can support us, thank you for whatever you are able to afford.
COMPANIES
We would love to work with you as a strategic partner, corporate member, or sponsor, or through team building and staff fundraising. There are a number of benefits we can offer in return, as appropriate, including raising awareness of your organisation. For more information, see our dedicated corporate support page or get in touch to discuss tailored options for your company.
The William Grant Foundation and Willian Grant & Sons have provided support to the Scottish Seabird Centre for many years. We are always glad to learn how our funding has enabled the charity to achieve significant positive outcomes, for example through new programmes, staff roles and core activities. With our environment facing increasing threats, we are pleased to be able to provide long-term support where it is most needed, helping protect our stunning marine heritage for the future.

Please Gift Aid your donation
If you are a UK taxpayer, Gift Aid allows you to increase the value of your gift without paying a penny more.
Giftaid can be selected and added automatically via our JustGiving page or our giftaid form can be downloaded here. If you need an editable version please email us on info@seabird.org. Thank you for your support.
Gift Aid enables us to reclaim tax that you have already paid at basic rate through income tax or capital gains tax. For every £1 you give, we can claim an additional 25p from the Inland Revenue.
So, for example, if you donated £10 we would receive an additional £2.50 from the government.
Legacies
A legacy to the Scottish Seabird Centre will enable us to build on the work we do, with more conservation, environmental education and improvements. It can also reduce or sometimes even eliminate liability for Inheritance Tax. Please see our dedicated legacy page for more details.
