We restore wildlife
We create bigger, better, more joined up spaces for wildlife across the landscape; protect and manage threatened habitats and species and campaign and lobby to reduce destructive development.
Chris Munton
We empower people of all ages
to reconnect with nature; learn about wildlife, ecology and conservation and the impact of their choices make and support communities to champion their local environment and wildlife.
Ian Thomas
We champion natural solutions
by encouraging sustainable management of natural resources; using the power of nature to improve peoples’ health and wellbeing and affirming the benefits of a healthy environment; air to breathe, water to drink, soil to grow food.
We build support
We work hard across Gwent to engage support and raise vital funds for our conservation and people and wildlife work.
