Sponsor the Terrapins
Project Terrapin is a unique sanctuary at Raystede designed to help care for injured and abandoned terrapins in the South of England.
Terrapins are often bought as pets when they are small and affordable but there is woefully little information about how to look after them and how big they can grow! They need large enclosures with basking areas and specialist equipment. Terrapins often end up in Raystede’s care when people realise that they’re not easy to care for, they grow too large or the novelty wears off. Others are rescued after they’ve escaped or been released on purpose.
They will have sanctuary at Raystede for the rest of their lives – they will not be put up for adoption.
If you have any questions about becoming a sponsor, please call us on 01825 840747 or email supportercare@raystede.org.
Your sponsorship will help to give our rescue animals a happy life.
