BUSINESS PARTNERSHIPS

Businesses can support us through either financial donations or pro bono skills and services, helping us direct as much funding as possible to our work on the ground.

CREATE A LEGACY
Get in touchMany of us feel a deep connection to Devon, shaped by years of walking its moors, swimming its coasts, and wandering its woods. A legacy gift is an opportunity to honour that connection in the most enduring way possible.
Imagine wildflower meadows seeded, woodlands planted, ponds dug, wetlands restored – all enabled by your generosity. Habitats stitched back together across a landscape you love, not just in your lifetime, but in the lifetimes of your children and grandchildren. This is not abstract philanthropy, it is real, visible impact for nature in Devon. Unlike one-off funding, an endowment is evergreen. The capital is invested and preserved, and only the returns are spent on grant-making, giving donors a way to make an immediate and lasting impact at the same time.

Nature restoration is the biggest source of hope in this era of climate and nature emergencies.
If we learn to share space better with nature and recognise its true value, we will be rewarded by seeing it recover and thrive.
