Born Free

elephant.co.uk is committed to helping wildlife charity Born Free

The Born Free Foundation is an international wildlife charity working to reduce animal suffering and to encourage people around the world to treat all animals with respect.

Born Free believes that wildlife belongs in the wild and is dedicated to the conservation of rare species in their natural habitat, and the phasing out of traditional zoos.

When elephant.co.uk was launched in 2000 we donated an initial £10,000 to Born Free, and we continue to support their work to help elephants in the wild and in captivity.

elephant.co.uk customers get a big thank you from Martin Clunes.

"It's good to see a company taking responsibility and giving something to a charity that means a lot to me. I have been working with Born Free for 7 years and their dedication and commitment to helping wildlife throughout the world has meant that many rare species of animals continue to survive in their natural habitat.

elephant.co.uk has linked up with wildlife charity Born Free because it shares this sentiment. To see a company that feels strongly enough about wildlife to donate money means that many animals will continue to receive the much needed help and support from Born Free."

elephant.co.uk funds an intensive care unit at an elephant orphanage in Sri Lanka.

"Without donations such as those from elephant.co.uk projects like this intensive care unit in Sri Lanka would never become a reality.

The sick and orphaned elephants in Udawalewe depend on it and these beautiful creatures have a much better chance of living into old age.

It is good to see British companies supporting the excellent work of Born Free to ensure future generations will still be able to see elephants living in the wild."
