The Wainwright Society was formed in 2002 and now has over 2000 family members. The Society promotes Alfred Wainwright’s vision of introducing a wider audience to fellwalking and caring for the hills.

The Wildlife Trusts
The Wildlife Trusts are a grassroots movement of people from a wide range of backgrounds and all walks of life, who believe that we need nature and nature needs us. There are 46 individual Wildlife Trusts in the UK, Alderney and Isle of Man – each a part of The Wildlife Trusts federation with over 911,000 members, working collaboratively to bring wildlife back, empower people to take meaningful action for nature and create an inclusive society where nature matters. Together, we are on a mission to restore a third of UK’s land and sea for nature by 2030.
The National Trust
We are a charity that works to preserve and protect historic places and spaces, for ever, for everyone. We were founded almost 120 years ago by three passionate Victorians who wanted to preserve outdoor spaces and prevent them from being built on. Today, our places include historic houses, gardens, mills, coastline, forests, woods, fens, beaches, farmland, moorland, islands, archaeological remains, nature reserves, villages and pubs.
The Outdoor Guide
The Outdoor Guide is a new, online resource with an abundance of inspiring walks to download, places to stay, eat and drink and some great outdoor gear to discover… all in one place.
There are lots of ideas and personal recommendations from TV presenter and outdoor enthusiast Julia Bradbury, who is a judge for The Wainwright Prize.
The RSPB
The RSPB is a charity for the conservation of birds and nature. We bring people together who love birds and other wildlife, and who want to take action to restore the health and diversity of the natural world.
