A day of celebration and sharing for people in Somerset who want to create a wilder future together.

A day of celebration and sharing for people in Somerset who want to create a wilder future together.

We have a vision for Somerset. It is a county teeming with wildlife, valued by everyone. We see landscapes full of flowers, accompanied by a chorus of bird song and buzzing with insects. Find out our plan to create a wilder Somerset.

A Nature Recovery Network is a joined-up system of places important for wild plants and animals, on land and at sea.

It allows plants, animals, seeds, nutrients and water to move from place to place and enables the natural world to adapt to change. It provides plants and animals with places to live, feed and breed.

It can only do this effectively if, like our road network, it is treated as a joined-up whole.

Funded by the National Lottery Community Fund, the Somerset Nature Connections partnership project with Somerset Wildlife Trust, Mendip Hills, Quantock Hills and Blackdown Hills National Landscapes will support local communities and individuals most vulnerable to mental health issues, providing better access to nature spaces to encourage and increase self-management for individuals, and develop a network of skilled volunteers who can support communities for the longer term

Join the Wilder Future campaign and help write a better future for wildlife.
