Friends of Wildwood
Britain is one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world. But it doesn't have to stay that way.
Friends of Wildwood is a way to stand with us as we work to restore native species, revive damaged landscapes, and help nature recover across Britain. Even if you have never set foot in one of our parks.
This is an armchair membership for people who believe in rewilding, conservation, and a future where British wildlife can thrive again.
Help bring British wildlife back, wherever you are

What Friends of Wildwood is not
We believe in being clear. Friends of Wildwood:
Does not include free entry or access to Wildwood parks
Does not replace Wildwood membership
Is not a visitor scheme
If you love visiting our parks, Wildwood Membership is the best way to support us. If you want to support conservation wherever it happens, Friends of Wildwood is for you.
Why your support matters
Nature recovery takes time, expertise, and sustained commitment. By becoming a Friend of Wildwood, you are helping to:
Give endangered British species a future
Restore ecosystems, not just protect fragments
Support long-term conservation thinking, not quick fixes
This is support that allows conservation to happen even when it's out of sight, but never out of impact.
