Wild About Brighton

Promoting wildlife and conservation in local green spaces across the city of Brighton & Hove by working with residents, community groups and volunteers

Wild Side of the Track

Based at The Deneway Nature Reserve in Brighton. This project offers the community an opportunity to learn skills, volunteer and experience nature through Forest School sessions, practical conservation and wildlife habitat improvements.

West Weald Landscape Project

The West Weald Landscape Project is a project about joining up the countryside and making connections between core areas like nature reserves so wildlife can move more freely and does not become isolated in fragmented woodlands, meadows or wetlands.

Sussex Black Poplar Partnership

The Sussex Black Poplar Partnership has been working to conserve the rare, native Black Poplar for over 20 years. Wakehurst (Kew), Sussex Wildlife Trust and local ecologists have created a working nursery so that each year a new generation of trees is grown. We are helping to create viable strategies to conserve the genetic variation of this species for centuries to come.
