As we approach the 2021 Welsh Government election, we highlight what we think should be a priority in our manifesto.

Wildlife Trusts Wales is working hard to protect nature in Wales for the future. We have three core objectives: demonstrate how nature works, inspire people and communities to take action for nature and to champion nature and our work through advocacy.

Campaign for habitats and animals, stronger legislation, wildlife conservation or to preserve a wild place. The Wildlife Trusts campaign for positive change for nature and people. Our latest national campaigns are on this page - ask your Wildlife Trust about local campaigns you can support too.

Wildlife Trusts Wales works closely with the five Welsh Wildlife Trusts. In Wales, over 100 people are employed by Wildlife Trusts and there are over 2,000 volunteers!

A history of The Wildlife Trusts and how it all began. In May 1912 banker and expert naturalist Charles Rothschild held a meeting at the Natural History Museum in London to discuss his idea for a new organisation to save Britain's best places for nature.

Wildlife Trusts Wales have a number of partnership projects which are bringing people closer to nature, and securing a Wilder Future for wildlife in Wales.

The Wildlife Trusts work with business and lottery partners. Find out what a strategic charity partnership is.

For over a decade, The Wildlife Trusts have campaigned with other environmental organisations in the UK for new laws to provide better protection for marine habitats and wildlife. As a result, the ground-breaking Marine and Coastal Access Act (Marine Act) was introduced in November 2009, providing UK Government with the tools needed to revolutionise the management of our marine environment. Wildlife Trusts Wales are calling for the Marine Act to be effectively implemented in Wales, and the opportunities provided by the Act seized to ensure real benefits for biodiversity around the Welsh coast.

There is not much time left to ensure the new Agriculture (Wales) Bill will enable the restoration of nature in Wales. Despite months of discussions with the Welsh Government, the Bill currently ignores the importance of nature restoration.
