The UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology is a world-leading independent research institute, carrying out excellent environmental science with impact. Our 600+ researchers deliver the data and insights that academics, governments and businesses need to solve urgent environmental challenges.

We manage thousands of nature reserves and run marine conservation projects around our coasts. There are 46 Wildlife Trusts covering the UK, the Isle of Man and Alderney. Each of the 46 Wildlife Trusts is an independent charity with its own trustees.

Field Studies Council is an environmental education charity. Founded in 1943, we are best known for providing residential and day field trips for those studying biology and geography. But our mission is to create outstanding opportunities for everyone to learn about nature. We are the only environmental education charity dedicated to helping people of all ages to experience the environment at first hand; to discover, explore and be inspired by the natural world. Each year over 140,000 people visit our Centres either as a child on a family holiday, a young person on a school fieldtrip, an adult on a leisure learning course or a teacher on a professional development course.
