We protect Dorset's wildlife and wild places
Together with our 27,000 members, our volunteers and supporters, we are Dorset's largest nature conservation charity. We work to champion wildlife and natural places on our 40 nature reserves and through our work with others.
Get ready to speak up for nature
A General Election is set for 4 July 2024 and it's crucial that nature's voice is heard. This General Election is incredibly important for wildlife and wild spaces across the UK, and beyond.
Our strategy for a Wilder Dorset
Dorset Wildlife Trust's strategy, ‘A Wilder Dorset by 2030’, explores the challenges facing Dorset’s wildlife and ecology and sets out what it aims to do to make more space for wildlife to adapt and recover and to enable all people in Dorset to find space and time for nature in their lives.
