Adopt a turtle with MCS...

Looking for a great Christmas gift idea for someone special?

The MCS Adopt a Turtle scheme enables you to celebrate Christmas whilst supporting one of the oldest species in the world.

You can choose from seven species including Leatherback, Hawksbill and Loggerhead turtles, for just £3 per month. The scheme includes:

  • An adorable fluffy version of your chosen turtle
  • Talk Turtle - the MCS newsletter on its turtle conservation work - delivered twice a year
  • A fact sheet and pictures of your chosen turtle species in the wild
  • A personalised Certificate of Adoption

The HH team adopted its own turtle - we called him Bod - earlier this year.

Alternatively, you could give someone an MCS Membership - with great opportunities to get involved in rewarding activities, plus updates about the charity's conservation work, programmes and campaigns.

You can follow MCS on Facebook and Twitter too.
