The Time to Act is Now
Nature is declining globally at rates unprecedented in human history. Since 1970, we have lost 69% of our wild animals, 50% of all marine wildlife and a staggering 83% of freshwater wildlife. In Avon, the picture is equally bleak – for example we have 96% fewer starlings and swifts than we did in the 1990s. The loss of our natural world is rapid, and it’s accelerating at an alarming rate.
The next 10 years are crucial and Avon Wildlife Trust is here to play a vital role in leading the change. Become a Patron of Avon Wildlife Trust and play an important role in ensuring 30% of land and sea is managed for the benefit of wildlife, 1 in 4 people take action for nature and 1,000 hectares of habitat is restored to provide nature based solutions.
Patrons have the unique opportunity to enjoy a close and special relationship with us, meeting the people involved in conservation delivery, and getting a behind-the-scenes glimpse at some of our most vital work. We’re looking for dedicated individuals who would like to donate £1000 per year (£83 per month) or more.
£196,000 - the average yearly cost of maintaining our existing nature reserves
