Thanks to the Veolia Environmental Trust, the Hawthorpe land purchase appeal is now 95% funded with just under £12,000 left to fundraise.

214 acres of grassland are within touching distance of being brought into the ownership of the Wildlife Trusts.

There’s plenty of opposition to rewilding from the food security lobby. However, reports like this show that food production is now mostly about quantity over quality.

Anyone arguing their land needs to be ‘protected’ from rewilding to provide food should have to show their food is of sufficient nutritional value to qualify.
