Cornwall Wildlife Trust 

All funds raised will go towards to the work of Cornwall Wildlife Trust, protecting Cornwall's wildlife and wild places both on land and at sea for future generations.

For more than 60 years, Cornwall Wildlife Trust has been working to protect Cornwall’s wildlife and wild places. Although a local, independent charity, we are part of a national movement of 46 Wildlife Trusts, all with a shared purpose.

We believe in a Cornwall where nature thrives, with our wildlife and wild places cherished and enjoyed by all.

A future where more land, rivers and seas are managed well for wildlife; where wild habitats are connected across our landscape, providing the means for much-loved wildlife to roam and flourish; and where people from all backgrounds connect with and support our natural world. 

The funds raised could help our work at Helman Tor, Cornwall Wildlife Trust’s largest nature reserve, which will be home to one of our most ambitious and exciting projects, as we look to implement rewilding principles at the site. 

It could also support our ongoing marine work including the Marine Strandings Network, which records and monitors marine wildlife strandings, and helps train and support a team of over 150 volunteers. The dedicated Strandings Hotline records all reported strandings on Cornwall’s coastline and this information is vital in helping us to conserve wildlife.
