Adopt an Animal

Adopt a puffin or buy a gift voucher from our online shop and support our education and conservation work.

Adopting an animal is a wonderful way to enjoy the Seabird Centre and help to support its work. You can choose from a puffin, a seal pup or a Bass Rock gannet family.

It also makes the perfect gift which can be enjoyed throughout the year, watching the puffins, seals and gannets on our live webcams. When you adopt an animal, you receive an attractive adoption gift pack including a plush animal, certificate, poster, fact sheet and recognition in the Seabird Centre.

The Scottish Seabird Centre is a charity dedicated to inspiring people to appreciate and care for wildlife and the natural environment. It depends on donations and sponsorships to support its education and conservation programmes including the SOS Puffin project which, with the help of over 500 volunteers is helping to save the puffin colonies on two islands in the Firth of Forth. For more information, visit SOS Puffin. (Charity no SCO 25837)

The Scottish Seabird Centre gratefully acknowledges support from the Heritage Lottery Fund, Scottish Natural Heritage and Tyne Esk Leader Funding in delivery of its conservation and education projects and events and exhibitions.
