Hello! We have launched our first ever crowd funder. This will help us secure 12 acres of fantastic land at East Waste Drove near Godney. Located just a few metres from an existing site (see sites map) it will make a wonderful space for nature. But we need your help. This land was bought with a generous loan from We Have the Power – and we need to pay it back to make sure we can do this again. Donate via the crowdfunder or on this website to secure this land, and help us buy more in the future.

The land has long been used for grazing sheep. Our plan is simple. Leave it alone as best we can for nature to take its course. We may need to make a couple of small interventions at the start, or clean the odd ditch to keep our neighbours happy, but as far as we can this will simply be land left alone to ‘go wild’. Over time this and other patches of land will create a mosaic of different habitats (they are all different after all). These will form refuges for wildlife and space for scruffy edges and natural processes. We will not build car parks or visitor centres. They will simply be wild stepping stones in the landscape.
