Visit the charity's profileThe Vision Our vision for Sculthorpe Fen is about so much more than its amazing wildlife.
We see a future where a rich ecosystem co-exists with the local community with access for all, rural history, rural crafts and traditional sustainable management which benefits the landscape, people and wildlife.
If the money is raised, it will more than triple the size of the protected area, prevent the land being sold on the open market and make it fully accessible to all.
If the landscape is right, the wildlife will thrive. Hides, boardwalks and wheelchair-friendly paths will allow access to the whole area where habitat management will be achieved through use of traditional rare breed livestock, using the best animals for the job, rather than those that return the greatest economic value. Animal husbandry courses will compliment rural crafts.
Buying the land is just the first step: we need your help to bring this vision to life! Sculthorpe Fen: a unique, diverse area for all to explore, where education, scientific research and quiet enjoyment exist side-by-side now and into the future...
