Working with private landowners to put nature into recovery

Shropshire Wildlife Trust (SWT) is working to see 30% of land managed for nature by 2030. 

If we are to achieve this, we must extend our efforts beyond the boundaries of our own nature reserves and support work on private land that is not owned by SWT.

Our Landscape Recovery Team delivers work on private land in partnership with landowners across Shropshire through a suite of programmes including land management advice, river re-wiggling and natural flood management.
