Virtual Gifts

A fun idea with a serious purpose

The RSPB's task is huge - ensuring a healthy environment for us all; wildlife and human beings. To help us accomplish our task and to help you select the perfect present for people who care about wildlife, we have created good nature gifts.

When you buy one of these virtual presents, the recipient doesn't actually get (for instance) a sheep. However, your donation is really helping the full range of RSPB work. So the thought really means something to the person who receives it, while your gift helps vulnerable wildlife.

For each virtual gift you order we'll send you a gift card explaining the practical value of your donation, for you to hand over at present-giving time. The card explains how, instead of a present, you are making a donation on their behalf, which helps to preserve our precious wildlife. You can also choose an attractive greeting card to personalise with your own message.

It's a different way of giving, and we hope you enjoy the idea.

How do RSPB virtual gifts work?

  1. Choose the virtual gift you want
  2. Pick a greeting card to go with it
  3. We send you the gift card and greeting card to give to a friend or relative
  4. The money you spend goes directly to the RSPB's conservation work

Delivery is free of charge for virtual gifts. You will only be charged postage and packing if you order other items at the same time.

These are projects which the RSPB has in its ongoing work plan. Your donations will be used to support these and our other conservation projects.
