Reserve Guardians

Help us to protect wildlife, increase biodiversity and combat climate change in Surrey by becoming a Reserve Guardian. 

From heathland to rivers and wetland, stunning chalk grassland to pockets of ancient woodland, our 60 reserves cover over 5,000ha of land and are of national importance too many rare and protected species.  

As well as vital habitats for wildlife, our reserves form part of our defence against climate change, through natural flood management and carbon sequestration.  

Human activity is having a devastating impact on nature, and Surrey is no exception. ~41% of the UK’s species have undergone population declines since 1970, and around 15% are threatened with extinction One-third of Surrey’s species are at risk, with some species already lost during the last century. 

It is our aim to establish a resilient network of healthy landscapes that will not only help wildlife cope with change but will also improve the ability of the natural environment to provide for and safeguard us. 

The World Economic Forum has projected that over the next ten years, five of the ten biggest risks we face as a society will be environmental*. By becoming a Reserve Guardian, your business can join a growing movement that is turning the tide for nature and people. 

Our reserves management programme costs us over £1,000,000 annually. By working with partners including local businesses, we are able to support the vital work of our team on the ground. 

Our Reserve Guardians programmes start from  £10,000 + VAT.
