Protect and restore
Our work over the decades has slowed the rate at which species have been lost, and has protected important habitats in Somerset but we must now take a more radical and urgent approach and involve many more people in acting locally for nature’s recovery. Small things add up to make a difference. But the challenges nature is facing are vast, so we are all going to have to think bigger, think bolder and take more action together to have the impact that’s needed.
Our Honeygar wilding project
Honeygar is perfectly situated to connect the Trust’s existing nature reserves and those of our Avalon Marshes partner organisations, and also strengthen Somerset’s Nature Recovery Network by linking the Levels and Moors to the Mendips in the north, west to Bridgwater Bay and Somerset’s coast, and to South Somerset. Its acquisition will create more space for nature and contribute to our goal of at least 30% of land and sea being managed positively for nature by 2030.

We have over 50 years experience and invaluable help from volunteers, members and supporters but despite that, nature is still declining.
