Happy New Year John!
This time of year is the perfect time to look ahead and think about what changes you can make – and for many of us it will start with a list of resolutions. So how about some resolutions for nature?
In the last year, we've brought species back from the brink of extinction, protected habitats and encouraged thousands to let their lawns grow wild for nature. And the good news is, everyone can help.
However you want to get involved, we've got ideas for everyone to help wild plants and fungi in 2026.
6 ways to help nature in 2026
Here's some of our favourite ways you can get involved John.
Handshake Volunteer - within the world of conservation there are many ways to volunteer your time from opportunities out in the field or from home.
Magnifying glass right Become a citizen scientist - from our annual Waxcap Watch campaign to the National Plant Monitoring Scheme, there's opportunities for everyone, and you don't need to be a botanist or a mycologist to get started!
Flower Take care of nature from home - go peat free, leave your lawn to grow wild for nature or sow native wildflower seeds to give a boost to pollinators.
Deciduous tree Spend time connecting to nature - get outside and marvel at the magic of nature in winter. Download one of our spotter sheets and head for a wild walk or stay cosy inside and spend a virtual minute in a meadow with one of our YouTube videos.
Support Stand-up for nature - from calling on politicians to make changes at government level to protect plants and fungi, to being aware of the species in your area and helping to record them – you can make a stand.
House building Team up and get your community involved - one way to share the love of nature is to start a community meadow.
Explore how you can help nature
Whether you’re a landowner or someone without a garden – there are ways for everyone to help nature in 2026. And nature needs our help now more than ever.
Another way you can make a difference, is to make a donation - when you donate to us, you give plants and fungi a voice. You help save rare and threatened species, and protect important habitats for plants and nature across the UK and globally.
