With the environment at the forefront of not only global decision-making, but the decision-making behind our adventures, we are thrilled to introduce you to the Pelorus Foundation, our charitable arm working hard to protect the planet on which we live.


About Pelorus Foundation

Whilst creating bespoke experiences is at the heart of what we do, Pelorus aims to leave a positive, lasting impact on the planet. Whether it’s community engagement, hands-on conservation, or cleaning up the environment, on each unique trip we inspire our clients to play their part. It brings us great joy to make a difference in the corners of the world we explore, and it is this impact which stimulated a desire to do more. The new Foundation website clearly demonstrates the pioneering actions underway to make progressive change.

The Pelorus Foundation is a charity committed to enhancing our ability to protect, preserve and promote our planet by supporting sustainable initiatives. It is fact that the world has reached a critical point in its existence, and awareness is spreading that action must be taken now if our ecosystems and wildlife are to thrive into the future. The aim of the Foundation is to create and build on existing initiatives to accelerate the pace of change towards a more sustainable future in protecting our planet. By striving towards environmental, wildlife and marine conservation, we are dedicated to protecting at-risk species and environments.

Pelorus Foundation Projects

Through identifying vital projects, building long-standing partnerships and actively getting involved, Pelorus Foundation is creating and supporting initiatives that address core environmental issues.

Thanks to their Climate Investment Fund, Pelorus Foundation is supporting the scale of carbon removal projects that are working with communities on the frontline of the climate crisis to develop technology-focused solutions. Across the African continent, Pelorus Foundation catalyzes wildlife conservation worldwide. Together with local partners, Oceans Alive Kenya, they enabled the development of Kenya’s first community managed Marine Protected Area, to rebuild local ocean biodiversity and support coastal livelihoods. In Namibia, they are working together with Namibian partner, PCRF to support groundbreaking research protecting the pangolin, the world’s most trafficked mammal.

Pelorus Foundation is enhancing elephant-human coexistence, working with Botswana project partners Elephant Havens and Wild Entrust to protect and re-wild orphaned elephants, and support new bio-boundary technology and research to reduce human/wildlife conflict. In the wider southern African region, they are working with rangers through local partner Frontier, providing specialist training for wildlife rangers who are working on the frontlines of anti-poaching efforts to protect critically endangered species.
