Oaken Palace Records is an independent record label based in Birmingham, England. The label is a registered charity[1] and 100% of the profits are donated to organisations supporting endangered species.[2][3]

Each release is dedicated to an endangered species of the artists choosing and all of the profits from the release are donated to an organisation dedicated to helping that species. The records are produced as environmentally-friendly as possible: the sleeves are made of 100% recycled cardboard, printed with non-toxic inks, and with carbon neutral record pressing.[2] As of June 2016 they have raised over £5,200.[4]
