Wildwood Trust is a native species conservation charity established in 2002 to push the boundaries of innovative conservation and rewilding. We work with nature to fight the biodiversity crisis, to halt the extinction of species and to create resilient habitats in which nature thrives. We focus on evidence-based solutions to return native species and recreating truly wild spaces.
As one of the leading British animal conservation charities in the UK, we are at the forefront of pioneering conservation projects, making us an invaluable place to visit to learn about conservation, animals and the natural world. We offer engaging workshops linked to the national curriculum, educational tours and talks for a wide range of ages. Or, immerse yourself in authentic historical experiences during our Living History and Blean Bison sessions.
Set in 40 acres of ancient woodland, Wildwood is an excellent place to practice woodland ecology techniques such as invertebrate and plant sampling and small mammal trapping. We also have an outreach programme which allows us to bring conservation into your classroom. GCSE, A-level and IB groups can join us at the beach to collect data using practical rocky shore and sand dune sampling techniques.

The venue was in an appropriate setting for children to access and not too big so they could get round all of it in the half day we were there. It could have had more access to toilets around the park. Children were engaged as most of the animals could be seen. I liked it, that the exit didn't mean we had to go through the gift shop, as this can cause a lot of behaviours for children wanting something they might not be able to have.
