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, an independent charity working directly with communities on the frontlines of conservation.


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

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

Through the Climate Investment Fund, Pelorus Foundation runs a dynamic carbon credit portfolio working to scale projects that actually remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The aim being to invest in novel technologies that are encouraging the transition to more permanent carbon storage solutions, as well as supporting communities on the frontline of the climate crisis.

Turning our focus to the ocean, Pelorus Foundation is working with Oceans Alive Kenya to restore life along the Kuruwitu coast, supporting a community-led marine protected area where coral, seagrass and fish biomass are recovering, while empowering local women fishmongers, the Mama Karangas, to turn plastic waste into income. Together, they are protecting marine habitats, strengthening coastal livelihoods and helping local communities become the driving force behind ocean conservation in Kenya.
