The photographs capture the mood and seasons of a year and at the same time raise funds that will go directly towards the Trust’s conservation work in Cornwall. It includes a main image for each month, including January 2018, plus mini photos of wildlife to look out for each month, whether on the beach, sky or land, as well as dates for local events, festivals and celebrations.

Cornwall is home to a wide array of wildlife, and these are featured in the Calendar along with fantastic landscapes from all around the county. The photographs have been taken by the Trust’s incredibly talented Photographic Group and supporters, including two by renowned wildlife photographer, David Chapman. With a stunning image of Godrevy Beach on the cover taken by Ian French, and repeated for January 2018, it will look beautiful in any home for the whole year round.
