What is Nextdoor Nature?
Nextdoor Nature is bringing communities together to help nature flourish where they live and work! Thanks to £5 million funding from The National Lottery Heritage Fund, Nextdoor Nature will provide people with the advice and support they need to help nature on their doorstep, and leave a lasting natural legacy to mark The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
So, whether there’s a dull, barren patch of land that could be colourful and buzzing again, or a space that could be a wild but safe area to visit or play in – the Nextdoor Nature projects will help everyone to take action for nature.
Feeling inspired? Check out the Nextdoor Nature Hub here! It's packed with help for communities and individuals, in plain English/Welsh and video, supporting you to start a group, find funding, take over green space, and more! You can also share your own story and find inspiration from others.
If you're looking for practical nature advice – from building a bug hotel to digging a pond – check out Wildlife Trusts Wales' Actions for Nature here.
Nextdoor Nature and The Wildlife Trusts are committed to improving diversity, equality and inclusion in everything that we do. It starts here, with us, with our staffing and employment practices, but we put it at the heart of all of our conservation and community work. That's especially important with Nextdoor Nature.
