The Winter Bird Appeal

You can help give Cornwall's winter birds a safe place to feed, rest and shelter

When nature thrives, Cornwall thrives.

Our mission is to make that happen – and thanks to the actions of thousands of people, it’s working. Slowly but surely, nature is winning its way back across Cornwall. But there’s still a way to go.

Reversing the decline

Seagrass restoration

Seagrass meadows are among Cornwall's richest marine habitats, providing shelter for wildlife, locking away carbon, and supporting healthier seas. Together, we're helping these vital habitats recover and thrive once more.

Nature needs you.

With much more work to do, we need your help. The more people who get involved, the more wildlife we can bring back and the more nature we can restore – together. Here’s where you come in.
