The Atlantic Grey seal colony at Horsey and Winterton is one of Britain’s great wildlife spectacles. The flat beaches, shallow waters and high dunes offer seals an ideal location for giving birth. The work of Friends of Horsey Seals (FoHS) to protect the seals from disturbance and injury is vital for the long-term survival of the colony.
Volunteer Wardens from Friends of Horsey Seals protect the seals during the breeding season and offer visitors designated viewing areas a safe distance from the colony.
In addition, an increasing number of seals are turning up with life-threatening injuries after becoming trapped in flying rings, ropes and netting and other discarded materials. Friends of Horsey Seals provide a trained rescue team to help sick and injured seals throughout the year.
