Do you want to join others and take action for nature in your local area?
Nextdoor Nature is a new Cornwall Wildlife Trust project that aims to inspire and empower people to take action for nature and wildlife.

Marine Protected Areas, including Marine Conservation Zones, are one of the most crucial tools for conserving marine wildlife.

Cornwall Environmental Consultants now offers developments the ability to achieve a new benchmark for the design and maintenance of green infrastructure, in housing and commercial development. Building with Nature has been designed to support the creation of high-quality green infrastructure throughout the planning and development process. Green infrastructure includes parks, play areas, nature reserves, and street trees, as well as rivers, ponds and other water features.

Cornwall has a thriving network of local marine conservation volunteer groups who promote and protect the marine environment in their local patch. Together this network is a powerful voice for our marine environment.

The Wildlife Trusts' National Marine Week is a nationwide celebration of the marine world! Here in Cornwall, we're running lots of fantastic events to help you discover our weird and wonderful marine life!

Cornwall’s coastal and marine wildlife is so essential to our economy, our well being and enjoyment of a beautiful Cornwall but it is under pressure. Marine wildlife needs our help and respect.

The Marine Strandings Network is a flagship project of Cornwall Wildlife Trust, and has been recording and monitoring dead marine wildlife strandings in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly for over 25 years. We work in partnership with the Cetacean Strandings Investigation Progamme (DEFRA Funded) and University of Exeter to lead on marine strandings work for Cornwall.
