Give a little help towards standing up for wildlife


Northumberland Wildlife Trust is encouraging anybody who still hasn’t made their new year’s resolution to take advantage of its half price membership sale this January and help it stand up for wildlife.

Anybody taking out an annual membership online and paying by either direct debit or debit/credit card via the Trust’s website from Tuesday 3rd until Tuesday 31st January can pay as little as £18.00 and make their best purchase of 2023.

New members receive a fantastic membership pack including the Trust’s membership magazine and monthly e-newsletters on its work around the region.

When events took an unexpected turn in 2020 with Covid-19, the wildlife charity, like many others, suffered a serious financial blow with its visitor centres and cafes closing, all income generating events and education work cancelled and face-to-face membership recruitment halted for nine months.

Supporting the Trust’s sale would give it a much needed cash injection as it continues to deal with the effects of the past three years.

Mike Pratt, Northumberland Wildlife Trust Chief Executive says:

“In the last couple of years, nature has become so important to everybody’s health and wellbeing which is great but it also means our work to protect wildlife and green spaces is more crucial than ever.

“We realise that the cost-of-living squeeze is a challenge for many people, but climate change and loss of biodiversity are the crises of our time - no one is left untouched by their impacts and the magnitude of what’s at stake. Whilst solving global problems can be challenging, solutions can start at a local level. That’s where the Trust is so well placed to support nature and wildlife - we are connecting people with nature as never before.

“Our members play an important part in ensuring our work, looking after our natural world in this beautiful region, continues. If I could ask for one thing this January, it’s that people make it their new year’s resolution to give wildlife a much needed voice by supporting our sale and helping us raise much needed funds to keep our natural health service going, not just this year, but for many more years to come.”
