Now is the moment to step up for global conservation. For nature, for people, for our planet.
Amidst global funding cuts, faltering climate ambition, and intensifying pressure on our natural world, the need to support effective, grassroots conservation work has never been more urgent. With the right support, we can create lasting change for communities and the ecosystems they protect.
Over the last 30 years, WFN has channelled £26 million to over 230 conservationists across 84 countries.
Together, Whitley Award winners have helped shape more than 200 environmental policies worldwide and their work has achieved incredible results:
- 87% of funded projects report significant reductions in threats such as poaching and deforestation.
- Over 15 million trees and 900,000 mangroves have been planted.
- 1.3 million people have gained sustainable livelihood opportunities.
Whether you choose to make a one-off donation, become a long-time supporter, leave a gift in your will, or fundraise for us, your support is helping to restore a healthy planet for generations to come.
“WFN is a direct funding charity that really does minimise the bits in between. The funding goes straight to the winners, who have a lasting impact on global, national and political levels.”
—HRH The Princess Royal, WFN Patron
