A WONDERFUL UPDATE FROM CORNWALL WILDLIFE TRUST — WHY NOT JOIN?

View this email in your browser THANK YOU WEEK 2026 Hi John Today is our annual ‘Thank-a-thon' – a day when members of our team take a little time to write messages, pick up the phone, and simply say thank you. It gives us a chance to celebrate the people who make everything we do possible. People like you. Your membership helps protect wildlife and wild places across Cornwall. From woodlands, moors, tors, and flower-rich meadows to rivers, estuaries, coast, and seas - your support is vital and so appreciated. Take a look at this short film we made to say thank you and share a few moments from the past year: What your support has achieved Here are just a few glimpses of what your support has helped to achieve: Wild beaver releases In February 2026, we celebrated the first fully licensed release of wild beavers in the county - a landmark moment for nature recovery in Cornwall. These remarkable animals are already shaping rivers and wetlands, helping ecosystems flourish. You can read more about the recent release of wild beavers here. Temperate rainforest restoration Tree-planting has now begun to restore rare temperate rainforest at West Muchlarnick. With 28,000 trees planned over the next 3 years, the project will see 30 hectares of this precious habitat restored over the next 50 years. You can read more about our temperate rainforest project here. Seagrass seed planting Cornwall’s estuaries, 16,000 seagrass seeds were planted in 2025 - creating the foundation for new meadows that will help clean our waters, capture carbon, and create safe havens for a variety of marine life for generations to come. You can read more about seagrass meadows and their benefits for nature here. While we can’t call or write to everyone in a single day, we want you to know that your support means the world to us. With that in mind, this is a small message to say how grateful we are for all that you make possible. If you do happen to receive a call from us, please know we won’t be asking for anything. We’ll just be saying thanks, and perhaps asking about the wildlife and wild places you love most. You’re someone who takes action to help nature. From where we’re standing, that’s pretty amazing – so from everyone here, thank you for being a wildlife hero.
