Every rescue BDMLR carries out—every seal pup treated, every dolphin refloated, every whale supported—is powered by people who choose to get involved. Whether you’re an adventurer, a baker, a workplace hero, or a creative soul, there’s a fundraising idea that fits you perfectly.
Your energy becomes real impact for the animals who need us most.
BDMLR is almost entirely funded by public support. When you fundraise, you help us:
Every pound you raise strengthens our ability to save lives.
Push yourself and protect marine wildlife at the same time just like Medics Joe Wilkins and Maddy De Marchis did when they walked 60 miles in 60 hours. You can read about it here: bdmlr.org.uk/60-miles-in-60-hours.
Other ideas include:
Set a goal, rally your supporters and make every mile count.
Bring people together for a cause that brings people together.
These events are brilliant for schools, communities and workplaces.
Your imagination is one of the most powerful tools you have.
If it brings joy, it can raise funds.
Turn your workplace into a force for good.
Great for team building and corporate social responsibility.
Mark your special moments by supporting BDMLR.
A beautiful way to honour what matters most.
Perfect for young ocean‑protectors.
Fun, educational and full of heart.
When you choose to fundraise for BDMLR, you’re never doing it alone. We can provide:
