Yorkshire Wildlife Trust Information

Yorkshire Wildlife Trust is a local charity working to protect and conserve Yorkshire's wild places and wildlife for all to enjoy. We care for over 100 nature reserves in Yorkshire including iconic sites such as Spurn National Nature Reserve near Hull, Staveley Nature Reserve in North Yorkshire, Potteric Carr near Doncaster and Flamborough Cliffs in the East Riding of Yorkshire. Creating a Living Landscape... Our nature reserves provide a much needed sanctuary for Yorkshire's wildlife. But we go further than that, working Yorkshire-wide to make sure our wild spaces are connected, giving wildlife freedom to move and flourish in an ever-changing world. ...and Living Seas Yorkshire's seas are home to internationally important wildlife: Coastal areas teem with breeding seabirds and intertidal zones provide habitats for a myriad of creatures. Beneath the waves hidden treasures rival any tropical reef, whilst dolphins, porpoises and minke whales move offshore. Nature Matters At the heart of our work is you: Yorkshire should be rich in wildlife for the benefit of everyone, with more wildlife, more wild places and more people having a strong connection to nature. Yorkshire Wildlife Trust works to inspire people of all ages, helping people to rediscover and reconnect with nature around them. Yorkshire Wildlife Trust is registered with the Fundraising Regulator. As a charity every penny raised is spent on delivering our charitable work. We draw on a variety of funding sources to cover the costs of conservation projects, education and awareness work, and to manage our network of nature reserves. There are a number of ways you can offer your support: As an individual - from joining as a member, donating to a specific appeal, volunteering and campaigning, to leaving a gift in your Will and donating in memory of a loved one. As a company - from corporate membership and corporate workdays, to sponsorship and donations.
