Local Members Groups
Local Members Groups play a vital role within the Trust. Formed to support its work, they help the Trust in a variety of ways. No two Groups are exactly the same, however, they share a common purpose with all volunteers and staff: to support the Trust in its main goal to protect wildlife and habitats in our three counties.
Every Local Members Group provides an opportunity for Trust members to join together to discover, enjoy and protect wildlife through guided walks, illustrated talks and meetings. Many also provide practical help on nature reserves and raise significant funds for conservation work. Some spread the word about wildlife and the Trust in local parish magazines and newspapers, or at fetes and fundraising events. All of them encourage new people to support the Wildlife Trust.
