Youth Forum

Our new youth-led collective is a small group of like-minded people who, together, will help to shape the future for Norfolk's wildlife.

They meet as a group every month at NWT's headquarters in Norwich, with lots of opportunities to organise and take part in activities in wild spaces across Norfolk.

Through regular activities and get-togethers, we support the Youth Forum members to:

  • Manage a nature reserve

  • Attend and organise wildlife workshops and events

  • Influence our work

  • Lead nature projects and campaigns in their community

Our Youth Forum members have the opportunity to:

  • Boost their wellbeing

  • Learn more about wildlife

  • Meet new people

  • Develop new skills

  • Help nature in Norfolk

At Norfolk Wildlife Trust, we believe that nature belongs to everyone. We are committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment where all young people feel valued, supported, and empowered to contribute to the future of Norfolk's wildlife.

Building Foundations for the Future is funded thanks to support from National Lottery players and The National Lottery Heritage Fund.
