Who We Are How We Are Funded How We're Funded Thank you to everyone who supports our work. Whether you're a grant-giving foundation, business, member, fundraiser or shop customer. Every contribution, large and small, helps us to safeguard the future of sharks. Most of our conservation work is funded by grants and foundations. It's vital that we have funds to support our projects and campaigns. Yet to exist and function we need core income. The stability core income provides also enables us to work on longer-term projects.Due to the nature of our work we have to think and plan long term. Making positive change at policy level (where it most counts) is often a long and laborious process. It took 10 years of campaigning to strengthen the EU finning ban!We have the know-how, connections and sheer dogged determination to create positive change for sharks. And, with your kind contributions, you enable us. By becoming a member, donating, fundraising, adopting a shark, or buying something from our Shark Shop you’re making a difference. We couldn't do it without you! Each year we submit a detailed financial report to the Charity Commission, who are responsible for regulating UK charities. PROJECT INCOME The largest part of our income is from “restricted funding”. This is provided by grants, foundations, trusts and business sponsorship, and funds the delivery of specific projects.Current project funders include: Cefas Defra European Maritime Fisheries Fund Disney Conservation Fund Fondation Ensemble Shark Conservation Fund John Ellerman Save Our Seas Foundation Marks & Spencer McArthur Foundation Waterloo Foundation Sea Changers Make a Donation Today: Please select a donation amount (required) £5 £10 £20 Other Set up a regular payment Donate Other Ways You Can Help: There are lots of ways you can support our work - click on the button below to visit our Get Involved page and together...Let's Save Sharks Banner image ©Thomas Vignaud Manage Cookie Preferences
