Norfolk's nature needs a home appeal

£6 raised

Our wildlife is running out of safe places to call home.

Imagine migrating thousands of miles to discover your home has been destroyed. 
Imagine scavenging for scraps to find enough food to survive another day.  
Imagine desperately searching and finding nowhere safe to raise your family. 

This is the bleak reality for many Norfolk species. Our precious wildlife is on the brink of survival, facing habitats drained of resources or destroyed altogether.

We really need your help to protect, restore, and expand homes for wildlife before it is too late.

1 in 4 British mammals are at risk of extinction

Tom Marshall

Across Norfolk, wildlife is struggling to survive while their homes are depleted and destroyed. Hedgehogs are declining at an alarming rate in rural areas, nightjars are battling habitat loss and changing climate, and 2024 was the worst year on record for our bumblebees2 - sadly, the list goes on.

Norfolk Wildlife Trust has a strong track record of getting results for nature, but we know we must aim even higher to give our natural world a fighting chance.

That’s why we have big ambitions to improve more habitats for wildlife, expand and connect Norfolk’s wild places, and engage more people with nature. But currently, we simply cannot do what is necessary quickly enough. We need more resources, more reach, and more voices speaking up for nature.

Any amount you can give, big or small, will make a tangible difference to wildlife right here in Norfolk.
