...and A Little Help from Our Swedish Friend, by Kirsty Pollard – Heart of Durham Conservation Officer

The Trust is thrilled to announce that National Lottery Heritage Funding (NLHF) has been secured for the coastline between the rivers Tyne and Tees.

Prize winners of a photography competition celebrating the beauty and wildlife of Weardale have been announced.

I was delighted to start in the role of Chief Executive of The Wildlife Trusts this spring (even if it was in rather odd circumstances given the Covid-19 lockdown).

We've put together some ideas to help you keep young minds active from home.

Will you take action to save the most important creatures on the planet?

Thanks to the wonders of modern technology, we’re able to bring you a completely paperless membership.

Go green, really really green, by supporting your local environment and doing it all…

Sadly we've had a number of incidents of anti-social behaviour and littering on our sites. We're appealing to people to protect our reserves.

🏃Will you take on your #Wild5 for Durham Wildlife Trust? Walk, run, cycle, toddle - whatever works for you - then donate £5 to help protect wildlife from Tees to Tyne.

With the glorious bursts of spring sunshine last week it was not surprising that our gardens were receiving welcome visits from the first emerging butterflies.
