Our Mission is to champion wildlife and natural places and to inspire people to value and take action for nature. Dorset Wildlife Trust is the leading charity dedicated to nature conservation in Dorset. From small beginnings in 1961 based entirely on voluntary effort, we now have over 25,000 members, 42 nature reserves, 5 visitor centres and a thriving programme of outreach with communities and land and sea managers. As a business we have grown but we have never lost our volunteer ethos and rely on the support of thousands of people. Dorset has an amazing natural diversity Dorset’s world renowned geology is reflected in its varied range of terrestrial and marine habitats, including heathlands, chalk downland, flower-rich hay meadows, chalk streams, tide-swept offshore reefs and sheltered saline lagoons. Despite losses, it is still one of the richest counties for wildlife in England.
