A vibrant summer meadow filled with wildflowers in shades of yellow, white, and purple. Buttercups, clover, and cow parsley bloom among tall green grasses under bright sunlight. In the distance, a stone wall and a river border rolling green hills dotted with trees, creating a peaceful countryside scene.

Gifts in Wills

Leaving a gift in your Will protects the places you love for generations to come. 

When you leave a gift in your Will to Durham Wildlife Trust, you’ll be ensuring your love of nature lives on. 

Your gift, no matter the size, will enable us to restore nature across our patch and inspire people of all ages to help wildlife where they live. 

Over the last 50 years, thanks to our amazing supporters, we have transformed former coal mines into havens for wildlife, restored wildflower meadows and created new wetlands to support an abundance of life. 

We have connected urban communities to green spaces, worked with countless organisations, schools and charities and ensured the next generation value, understand and protect our wild places. 

Find out how you can help us continue our work.

The thistle’s spiky green stems and vivid purple blooms stand out against a softly blurred green background, creating a calm, natural meadow scene.
