A wilder Norfolk for all.

We're working to protect Norfolk's wildlife and the wild places they call home.

Norfolk Wildlife Trust has been protecting and restoring Norfolk's nature since 1926. Today, we manage over 60 nature reserves and other key sites for nature across the county. With the help of our supporters, we create, maintain, and protect habitats which nurture a thriving variety of wildlife, including some of Norfolk's rarest species. We are dedicated to inspiring more people to connect with and take action for nature; through visiting our nature reserves, volunteering, or joining us as a member.

Christmas gifts that give back (to wildlife!)

Buying your festive gifts and cards from Norfolk Wildlife Trust this Christmas helps to protect and restore our wonderful wildlife and the places they call home. From illustrated tote bags and tea towels, to binoculars and animal adoptions - shop gifts for nature lovers of all ages.  

This year, we are also once again incredibly lucky to have the support of seven talented artists who have generously helped us create our 2025 charity Christmas cards (Steve Cale’s ‘Snow in the Moonlight' pictured).
