The Agriculture (WALES) Bill is the legal framework being used to implement the Sustainable Farming Scheme (SFS), a ground-breaking piece of legislation that could change the face of farming in Wales forever. The scheme focuses on payments for farmers based on public goods, and replaces the Common Agriculture Payment (CAP) scheme.

The Wildlife Trusts believe that we are part of nature and that we depend on the natural world for our wellbeing and prosperity. Everything we value comes from nature and everything we do has an impact on it. We believe that nature should be a normal part of childhood and that wildlife should thrive across our landscape. However, nature is in crisis.

The Welsh Beaver Project has been investigating the feasibility of bringing wild beavers back to Wales since 2005.

Volunteer to help wildlife in your local area. Opportunities range from community gardening, species surveying, caring for nature reserves, dry stone walling, hedge laying, habitat management, to running Wildlife Watch groups. You could volunteer organisational, IT, administrative or financial skills too. Both regular and casual volunteers are needed.

The Wildlife Trusts are working to save bees and pollinators. Found out how you can help save butterflies and bees.
