Nominate Norfolk Wildlife Trust as your Charity of the Year

As the UK’s first and oldest Wildlife Trust, we are committed to protecting Norfolk’s wildlife – we care for more than 60 nature reserves across the county – and inspiring a lifelong love of nature in everyone.

Here in Norfolk, we are fortunate to be surrounded by some of the most unique habitats in the country, from beautiful Broads which are home to 30% of the UK’s rarest species, to ancient woodlands and chalk rivers. However nature and our environment are at a critical tipping point, and Norfolk’s precious wild spaces are not immune to this crisis.

With a growing membership of over 40,000 individual members, almost 100 engaged local businesses part of our corporate membership scheme, and a flourishing social media presence, NWT is a visible, active and growing charity. By selecting NWT as your Charity of the Year partner, your business will directly help us continue our work protecting Norfolk’s nature, whilst clearly communicating to your employees, customers, suppliers, and local community that you are a responsible Norfolk business with a commitment to sustainability and conservation.
