Adoption of a bird is the ideal gift for family and friends that prefer to look but not touch, although that doesn’t mean you can’t adopt one for yourself. You can choose any of the birds at the centre from a Little Owl to a Bald Eagle, so we should have something for everyone.

The money from your adoptions helps to pay for the food and hospital bills not only for the bird adopted but also all of our other birds including the wild casualties that come into our hospital.

With your adoption, comes one year's membership to the centre which includes quarterly newsletters. This allows you to visit the bird you have adopted and the 200 plus other birds that we currently house. You  will also receive a photograph of your adopted bird and an adoption certificate.

To view a list of the current species, you can see the list here Species List

Please note:

The Raptor Foundation can reclaim, from the government, the tax paid on your membership at no extra cost to you. All you need to do is confirm you are a UK Taxpayer by selecting the gift aid option. These extra funds go towards the Conservation Work of the Charity. By choosing the gift aid option, you are declaring that you are a UK Taxpayer and have paid an amount of tax greater than 25% of the cost of your membership.

This should only be selected if the membership is for yourself.
