Who we are
The Wildlife Trusts are a federated movement of 46 individual charities, supported by a central charity, the Royal Society of Wildlife Trusts. Together we have more than 900,000 members, 38,000 volunteers and 3,400 staff across the UK. We are at a pivotal moment in our 110-year history, with an ambitious new Strategy 2030 setting out a vision of nature in recovery, with abundant, diverse wildlife and natural processes creating wilder landscapes where people and nature thrive.
The next few years will be critical in determining what kind of world we will all live in. We need to reverse the loss of wildlife and put nature into recovery at scale as a matter of urgency if we are to prevent climate and ecological disaster. This will require big, bold changes in the way we think and operate, and the development of a strong, collaborative culture. It will require key stakeholders and the public to take action for nature’s recovery
We’re Wild About Inclusion! To us, this means inspiring, empowering and engaging people from all backgrounds, cultures, identities and abilities, to change the natural world for the better. It means creating workspaces where difference is celebrated, everyone can be themselves and flourish, just like nature.
