What you get when you adopt a dolphin
Adopt a Dolphin for as little as £4 a month.
When you join our Adopt a Dolphin programme you will receive a pack full of information about your dolphin and WDCS:
- The WDCS interactive DVD/CDROM features stunning dolphin footage, lots of fascinating facts about whales and dolphins and extras such as games and a screensaver (direct debit adopters only).
- A delightful fluffy dolphin complete with its very own name badge is yours to keep!
- The beautiful photograph of your adopted dolphin means that you can be reminded of them every day!
- As recognition of your dolphin adoption you will receive a brilliant certificate, personalized with your name, showing how you are caring for and supporting the dolphins!
- Our introduction to the Adopt a Dolphin programme will also give you all the facts and figures about the dolphins themselves.
WDCS works all over the world protecting whales and dolphins – our brochure includes details of that life-saving work and how your dolphin adoption will help!
Charlie Phillips has been studying and photographing dolphins for 17 years and ten of those have been as part of WDCS! Nowadays, his role is that of Adopt a Dolphin Field Officer up in Scotland’s Moray Firth, from where he reports back exclusively to our adopters.
Charlie’s Dolphin Diaries and fantastic photographs appear each month in the Adopt a Dolphin email update that goes out to all dolphin adopters who pay by direct debit, so you’ll be the first to know what Rainbow, Nevis, Sundance and Moonlight have been up to.
You can find more of Charlie’s superb pictures and reports at his blog: http://www.adoptadolphin.com/blog. You can also leave him a message or a comment here if you have questions about your dolphin!
Once you’ve adopted your dolphin you’ll also begin to receive postal mailings from WDCS throughout the year:
- Adult adopters receive WDCS magazine every three months. They also get quarterly adoption newsletters which include updates on their dolphin.
- Under-14 adopters receive our junior magazine, Pod News, four times a year with the latest updates on their dolphin.

If you’d like to visit the area where your dolphin lives, you can visit the WDCS Wildlife Centre at Spey Bay. For more details click here.
