"We need nature and it needs us. We are here to make the world wilder and make nature a part of life, for everyone. We're helping to make life better - for wildlife, for people and for future generations." Eco pageants  UK chosen charity for 2021 is the wildlife trusts and each finalist will be supporting their local trust. 

Durham Wildlife Trust is a charity and was established in 1971, originally as the Durham County Conservation Trust, becoming Durham Wildlife Trust in 1988. The Trust operates across the area of the old County Durham, which today includes Darlington, Gateshead, South Tyneside and Sunderland.

Durham Wildlife Trust is part of the federation of 46 charities across the U.K. that together form the Wildlife Trusts. Recognised by their badger logo, each individual Wildlife Trust is an independent organisation conserving wildlife in its local area. The Trusts are membership organisations with a strong volunteering tradition. Each Trust was originally founded by dedicated volunteers with a passion to conserve their local wildlife. Acting locally and making a difference nationally.

Durham Wildlife Trust manages 37 nature reserves between the Tees and the Tyne. From ancient woodland and heathland to meadows, wetlands and more, the Trust has saved some of the North East’s most special places from destruction.

Today Durham Wildlife Trust continues to acquire new reserves, helping nature to recover across the landscape and bringing wildlife into the heart of our towns and cities.
