Information about our accessible reserves.
Nature deserves better
Help us to tell the UK Government that nature deserves better! The UK Government are developing targets to meet the commitments in the Environment Acts. It says these are ambitious plans for nature recovery - and yet current plans would mean less wildlife in England in 20 years time. the UK Government must act NOW. Demand more for nature by signing our petition.
Nature Reserves
Most people live within a few miles of a Wildlife Trust nature reserve. From ancient woodlands to meadows and wetlands, they’re just waiting to be explored.
Ordinary moss
Ordinary moss is very common in gardens and woodlands. moss provides shelter for many minibeasts, so encourage it to grow in your garden by providing logs, stone piles and untidy areas.
Nature Recovery Networks
Protected nature reserves alone cannot meet the needs of wildlife or our society. We need to restore and protect other places in the landscape that are still rich in wildlife. It is our aim to stitch fragmented wild places together and give nature the chance to renew itself.
Meadow brown
One of our most common butterflies, the meadow brown can be spotted on grasslands, and in gardens and parks, often in large numbers. There are four subspecies of meadow brown.
Communities and nature
Bringing nature into communities with projects, useful resources and support in order to enable more people to connect with nature.
Barriers to nature
Nothing beats being outside in nature! But connecting with our environment can be full of barriers, especially as autumn and winter arrive.
Nature for Everyone
The Wildlife Trusts have joined more than 60 nature, planning, health and equality organisations to launch a new ‘Nature For Everyone’ campaign, calling for a ‘legal right to nature’ to be a key component of the Government’s Levelling Up reforms.
Marsh hair moss
The marsh hair moss is the largest moss in the UK. Look out for it in damp woodland and on boggy heathlands where it forms large, green and spikey 'cushions'.
Brown shrimp
The brown shrimp blends perfectly with its seabed home and is found all around the coasts of the UK.
