We’re thrilled to share the news that Surrey County Cricket Club (SCCC) has become our newest gold corporate member. Surrey Wildlife Trust’s Chief Executive, Sarah Jane Chimbwandira, said: “Nothing could be more English than a game of cricket – and it’s great that SCCC is working to protect another vital part of our national heritage: our wildlife and wild places. With one-third of Surrey species in trouble, the birdsong and natural beauty that accompanies every outdoor game is under threat of vanishing for good – but thanks to partnerships like this one, we won’t let that happen”. https://bit.ly/3NVzdDD

About us
We are one of 46 individual Wildlife Trusts covering the whole of the UK, the Isle of Man and Alderney. Together, we are the UK’s largest people-powered environmental organisation working for nature’s recovery on land and at sea. Surrey Wildlife Trust manages almost 8000 hectares of land in Surrey (5% of the county) for wildlife and people. We speak up for wildlife by advising decision makers and ensuring wildlife has a voice and share our knowledge of wildlife at every opportunity, through our education services to schools, adult learning courses and events. Our hands-on approach of caring for nature reserves and advising other landowners on managing land for nature has transformed the fortunes of some of Surrey’s most threatened species. We work with schools, communities and volunteers across Surrey to inform and involve people in nature. Over 20,000 children and young people now benefit annually from a wide variety of outdoor learning courses and activities.

We're all about working with local people to deliver better habitats! Our Nature-based Solutions and Reserves Management teams recently came together to use our ‘Robomower’ to help an active community group remove an overgrown bramble patch near Guildford. The group will now replace it with a wider mix of native hedgerow plants to support more native birds, mammals and invertebrates, soak up carbon and prevent soil erosion 🌱
