Wilder Communities

Nature is struggling globally, but community action can have a significant impact on the local environment and improve biodiversity everywhere.

Our Wilder Communities programme is all about helping people across Surrey to restore and protect wildlife where you live. Any community can help support our mission to bring nature back into recovery, In fact, we can't do it without you! 

What is Wilder Communities?

If you want to start a project that helps nature in your local area and involves others in your community, then we can provide guidance to help you along the way.

We can help you by providing:

• Training courses are available on a range of topics (we are currently offering two free spaces on a number of our adult learning courses).
• Free online resources.
• A loan box to borrow useful surveying equipment (coming soon!).
• Invitations to Wilder Community events.
• Opportunity to join a network of like-minded communities.
• Points of advice, or we may be able to come and visit you.
• Ecology Services walk-over, mapping habitats, undertaking a condition assessment, and report service, to advise on the measure to manage the habitats, for a set fee.
• Wilder Communities awards.
