Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust is the county’s leading conservation charity, run by local people for the benefit of local wildlife. We are part of The Wildlife Trusts, a national network of 47 local trusts working to protect wildlife throughout the UK. Founded in 1963, we have been protecting the county’s wildlife and wild places ever since.
Our vision is for Living Landscapes rich in wildlife, valued by everyone.
Our mission is to protect wildlife, restore biodiversity and to inspire people about the variety of nature on their doorstep.
What we do:-
-
We manage over 70 nature reserves throughout Nottinghamshire, covering 2,000 hectares of land including woodland, wetland, heathland and grassland areas.
-
Advise local authorities, businesses and landowners on managing their land and other conservation issues.
-
Have 10,600 members, 8 active local groups and 7 Wildlife Watch groups (for our 5-15 year old members)
-
Enable over 700 active volunteers to take positive action within their local environment.
-
Run an extensive programme of events throughout the year – walks, talks and activities – there is something for everyone.
-
Run education and training programmes for all ages, including from our Attenborough Nature Centre and the Idle Valley Rural Learning Centre.
We are delighted to be working with Absolute Networks and would encourage all local businesses to make use of this great, free service.
