Protecting Turtle Hatchlings

Over the past four years, we have proudly partnered with Blue Marine Foundation - a charity devoted to protecting and restoring the beauty and biodiversity of our oceans.

Every accessory in our Turtle collection supports our partnership - funding a turtle ranger programme, safeguarding marine havens, and supporting ocean conservation projects on Ascension Island and beyond.  

How your purchase helps

Due to ocean pollution, habitat loss, and human disturbance - heartbreakingly just 0.1% of turtle hatchlings in the Dutch Caribbean survive to adulthood. 

Today, your orders are making a real difference where it matters most: the Ascension Islands. Home to one of the world’s largest green turtle nesting sites and a key part of a major Marine Protected Area in the Atlantic, this unique ecosystem needs is a beacon of hope for turtle conservation. Thanks to your support, we proudly fund a 3 person ranger program dedicated to giving this endangered species a vital chance at survival.

Turning the tides

Thanks to your support, Turtle rangers are making lasting impact by:
- Protecting endangered nests from predators and disturbance
- Keeping beaches clean and safe for nesting
- Guiding hatchlings safely to the sea, improving their chances of survival

“Turtles play an incredibly important role in the underwater world - from creating habitats for other marine life, to balancing beach ecosystems, and sustaining the ocean’s delicate food web. I’m so excited that with your help, we’re doing our part to protect this vital species.”

– Elizabeth, Founder & Creative Director

Our commitment to ocean conservation

Since the launch of our partnership with Blue Marine Foundation in 2022, we’ve proudly supported efforts that have given up to two million turtle hatchlings a fighting chance. To ensure this keystone species continues to thrive, we commit to raising £42,000 for Blue Marine Foundation every year.*

*Each year, Elizabeth Scarlett commits a minimum of £42,000 to fund turtle conservation projects in Ascension and the Dutch Caribbean. This works out as £2.10 from the sale of each item. The commitment includes funding for five turtle rangers during nesting seasons, as well as for signage and education in the local communities. These teams help protect approximately 2 million turtle hatchlings per year.
