Let us leave something better for the next generation
The trustees of NEWT have been involved in conservation projects in the West Berkshire and Wiltshire area for a number of years, such as river restoration, running hedge laying courses and wild flower meadows. We stumbled upon the opportunity to lease 37 acres of land that was already in a naturally rewilding state and well used by the public. The charity was formed to obtain the lease of the land and raise funds to maintain it.
NEWT has 3 pillars to our mission statement:
- Enhance habitats to increase bio-diversity
- Provide nature based education
- To provide an amenity for the local community
We have named our new nature reserve ‘Northcroft Meadows Nature Reserve’ and we hope you can visit soon!
