Save Seabirds, Restore Seas, Inspire Change
Scottish Seabird Centre Strategy 2026 - 2031
We’re proud of the difference our charity has made over its first 25 years. From our conservation work in the Firth of Forth and on the islands, to the 60,000 children and young people who have participated in our education programme, and the millions who have visited us and been inspired by the extraordinary wildlife and special places we look after. But we know we need to do more. Seabirds and our natural world are in trouble, and we are committed to doing what we can to save them and to connect more people with nature.
Our new 5-year strategy out exactly how we will do that.
