About Kelp Social

My name is Mollie Kerr and I am the CEO & Founder of Kelp Social.

Ever since I was a child, I have loved and cared for animals. I am sure many of you feel the same protective instincts and yearn for improvements to be made.

Over the last few years, I have considered how animal welfare could be revolutionised. Finally, I realised that social media was an untapped resource when it came to making a positive change for animals. Kelp Social is a social media platform specifically for animal lovers, providing a unique combination of carefully selected brands and charities, with like minded bloggers. Together we want to build a compassionate community and give them the opportunity to make a difference.

We chose the name Kelp as kelp is an ‘ecosystem engineer’. For fish, snails, seals, otters and whales, it is somewhere they can eat, raise their young and find shelter. Kelp-rich forests, which can grow up to 100 feet tall, create canopies at the top of their fronds. Otters will wrap themselves in these canopies and use them as blankets while they sleep. These canopies can also transport animals hundreds of kilometres.

This is why we call this revolution ‘The Raft’. By spreading awareness, sharing your story and connecting with other animal lovers, you are The Raft. You are the hero that all animals need, now more than ever. If we work together, this Raft will grow bigger, stronger and support more species.

If you want to help build The Raft, then start your membership. You can blog free of charge and connect with otherusers. If you sign up for a membership, you will be able to grow your account, earning a level-up when you receive likes, comments and shares, as well as rewards from our exclusively animal friendly sponsors. 

If you know any charities or brands that would be suitable for this platform or have any ideas about how we can help animals, then we would love to hear from you at hello@kelpsocial.co.uk .
