Our vision

A thriving natural world, with our wildlife and habitats playing a valued role in addressing the climate and ecological emergencies, and people inspired and empowered to take action for nature.

Our purpose

To bring wildlife back, to empower people to take action for nature, and to create a society where nature matters.

Our approach

  • We are ambitious in our desire to reverse the declines in nature. We need to increase abundance and diversity by restoring and creating habitats at scale.
  • We speak authentically with a bold and confident voice, we commit to tell the truth about the state of nature and be clear about what needs to be done to put it in recovery.
  • Firmly rooted in our local communities, we look after wild places, increasing people’s understanding of, and connection to, the natural world, on land and at sea.
  • We look to establish common cause and work in partnership with others to develop new, innovative ways to put nature in recovery.
  • We demonstrate what is possible, and inspire, empower, and enable people from all backgrounds, cultures, identities and abilities to bring about our vision with us, embracing the diversity of our society to change the natural world for the better.
  • If we get our approach right in Lincolnshire, and each Trust does the same, we will have a collective impact that gets it right nationally and helps address global problems.
