Our work

We work form land to sea to rebuild biodiversity and improve life for both wildlife and people. We publicly stand up for wildlife and the wider environment by creating and enhancing wildlife havens within and outside nature reserves, forming Living Landscapes and Living Seas. We own and manage 110 nature reserves, including Skomer and Skokholm island and operate three visitor centres. A small number of our nature reserves do not have public access due to the presence of Ash Dieback, dangerous paths or they have wildlife which is subject to disturbance. The majority of our sites have public access and are open all year round.

We work to connect and inspire people with the natural world and work in partnership to achieve a bigger impact for wildlife. By working closely with schools, colleges and universities, farmers and landowners, fishers, community groups and other environmental organisations, lotteries, charitable trusts and foundations, politicians, local and national governments and you, we are improving life for wildlife and people.
