We help local wildlife in so many ways, and your support is crucial. Your money will be used specifically in this region, so you and your loved ones can watch your contributions develop our wild places for many years to come.
Donate to NWT via text message for a quick and easy way to make a big difference! 100% of your donation comes to us to protect native wildlife in your local area!
Text NWTR12 £5 to 70070 to donate a fiver, or double your generosity by texting NWTR12 £10!
Membership costs from as little as £3 per month – this small sum of money helps us protect the wildlife that lives in your area, whether it is flying over your garden wall, growing in a local woodland or running through a wild meadow. Without members and donors like you, we could not continue this vital work.
Membership categories
Whether you purchase an individual membership, join with a partner, friend or get the whole family involved, we have a subscription to suit you. For children, there is even the fantastic Wildlife Watch programme to get involved in! Why not also consider our Gift Membership, which makes a thoughtful and original present, and can be personalised with your own message. We also offer a Schools Wildlife Watch Membership programme, which includes extra benefits for staff and pupils, and a programme for Clubs/Youth Groups to engage people in local wildlife.
Membership benefits
Our members provide a strong voice to campaign for wildlife, and your support enables our conservation and education work to continue. You will receive a membership pack when you join, and will be updated with mailings throughout the year. To unlock the wild beauty of our reserves, members can also purchase a key for the locked hides at Big Waters and Holywell Pond. Keys cost £10 and can be purchased by contacting Laura Lowther at the Trust.

Making a difference
