About Our Trust

WTSWW manages around 90 wildlife reserves in Wales, from Cardiff to Aberystwyth, including the island reserves of Skokholm and Skomer. Our volunteers and Local Groups help us manage these, Local Groups also run a wide variety of events.

We stand up for wildlife, making it as accessible as possible for everyone. As a charity we rely on members, donations, legacies and grants to continue our work.

Skokholm Appeal

Please Help the Wildlife Trust of South and West Wales raise £250,000 to secure the lighthouse and the future of Skokholm Island.

The island is an internationally significant wildlife and heritage site, home to many important species including puffins, storm petrels and rare plants, plus the land around the lighthouse contains possibly the densest Manx shearwater colony in the world. More about the Skokholm Lighthouse Appeal
