The Welsh Beaver Project has been investigating the feasibility of bringing wild beavers back to Wales since 2005. This work is being led by North Wales Wildlife Trust on behalf of all five Wildlife Trusts in Wales as part of our Living Landscapes strategy.

In October, 2021, Radnorshire Wildlife Trust became owners of Pentwyn, a 164 acre livestock farm, which we plan to restore for nature. Imagine a landscape buzzing, chirping and crawling with wildlife. A landscape that brings and maintains hope for a better world for nature and people. This is our vision for the site.

The vision is of a thriving Wilder Marches where people who know and love the land can make a good living and produce food whilst playing a key role in nature’s recovery, and where our wildlife and natural habitats play a valued role in addressing the climate and ecological emergencies.

To save the wildlife and tackling climate change, we need more than just shovels and rakes, we need pen and paper, spray cans - we need creativity and imagination.
In 2021 we launched the Wild Ideas workshops as our way of engaging with young people about the ecological and climate emergency in a creative way.

Here at Radnorshire Wildlife Trust we work to support individuals and groups who want to make positive change in their community.

Nature needs us now more than ever. The scale of the task can often seem overwhelming, it requires policy change and work at a landscape scale. And whilst it can often feel out of our control, there are things that each one of us can do to make Radnorshire better for nature, ourselves, and our community. We must remember that people have power, especially when we come together, build momentum and act to make positive change.

We understand that not everyone is ready, able, or inclined to fundraise for community land or start a new community group. For those who are, we are here, ready to support them.



Nextdoor Nature is bringing communities together to help nature flourish where they live and work! Thanks to £5million 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 in honour of the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.

Every one of us can make a difference to bring back nature and tackle climate change by taking small actions that add up to big changes. We're excited to support communities to do just this with the launch of Nextdoor Nature - a grassroots programme of transformational micro-projects designed to help nature thrive. Nextdoor Nature is a UK wide project between The National Lottery Heritage Fund and The Wildlife Trusts, here is Radnorshire we are working with communities in Llandrindod Wells, Knighton & Presteigne to improve spaces for nature and for people.
