We’re the only charity dedicated to speaking up for nature in our two counties
We campaign for a wilder future, where everyone can benefit from and enjoy wildlife near them. We have a long history of campaigning for positive change for nature and people, and working with local communities to save special places for wildlife and helping nature recover.
In 2020 we launched Wilder 2030, our strategy for a wilder Hampshire and Isle of Wight which set out our core goals by 2030:
-
We need 1 in 4 people to take action for nature’s recovery.
-
We need at least 30% of our land and seas to be where wildlife is recovering.
-
We need the pressure on nature reduced everywhere else.
In order to make this happen, we campaign for the changes needed in law, in policy and in practice. We work with government, councils, farmers, and others to shape decisions affecting wildlife on land and at sea. We provide the knowledge, tools and resources so our members and supporters can be the voice for wildlife in their local area and hold authorities to account.
