Dorset Wildlife Trust is working as part of the Nature Recovery Dorset network to restore, enhance and connect spaces for nature, bringing together people and communities to help create a more wildlife-rich county.

Improve your health and wellbeing through nature

As part of a national project funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund to leave a lasting natural legacy to mark the Queen's Platinum Jubilee, Nextdoor Nature aims to create a huge matrix of community-led rewilding projects in Dorset and across the UK, empowering people to take action for nature and to improve the greenspace where they live.

Sponsoring a nature reserve is an opportunity for your organisation to demonstrate your commitment to nature’s recovery in Dorset. And with 42 reserves across Dorset, you can choose a site close to you and your staff, to encourage employee wellbeing and engagement in nature.

Over recent days, the UK Government has launched an attack on nature, weakening the laws that protect our wildlife and making a U-turn on manifesto promises to be the greenest Government ever: reversing reforms to farming and making energy decisions that will worsen climate change.

Dorset's wildlife and wild places need you. Nature is in trouble, and we need your help to make it thrive once more.

It's time to make nature's voice heard - talk to your local MP and councillors about the wildlife you care about.

Help us to tell the UK Government that nature deserves better! The UK Government are developing targets to meet the commitments in the Environment Acts. It says these are ambitious plans for nature recovery - and yet current plans would mean less wildlife in England in 20 years time. the UK Government must act NOW.
