What we do

Bring people closer to nature

We are passionate about getting people outdoors, connecting with the natural world and inspiring them to act on its behalf. We were founded with a strong focus on education and people are still at the heart of our work today.

From outdoor learning programmes and wildlife clubs for kids to training schemes and youth-led environmental projects to wildlife events and hands-on volunteering, we engage thousands of people of all age and backgrounds with nature every year.  Discover more about our work, and how you can get involved, by following the journey below.

No one will protect what they don’t care about, and no one will care about what they have never experienced.
