Our Asks for the Senedd Elections

The next Senedd elections are a crucial moment for nature in Wales. The next term (2026-30) must deliver on Wales’ commitment to protect and effectively manager 30% of land, freshwater and sea by 2030.

Nature in Wales is declining, with 1 in 5 species extinction - and without action at scale and pace, this loss will continue, putting our communities, health, and future at risk. But with the right leadership, this can be the turning point for nature’s recovery.

We’re calling on candidates to put nature at the heart of decision making and commit to action for people, nature and climate.

Head over to the Wildlife Trusts Wales website for a full rundown of our priorities for candidates, manifesto and blogs about the importance of these elections and what you could ask your local candidates to show that Nature Matters to you!
