Runs an extensive environmental education programme for schools.

Has more than 10,000 members, seven active local groups and six Wildlife Watch groups (for younger members).
Involves volunteers in a range of projects, from conservation work to fundraising.
Produces a range of publications, from fact sheets and leaflets to books on wildlife gardening and a Reserves Handbook.

Supports local members' groups - the lifeblood of the Trust - running meetings, talks, walks and fundraising and promotional events.
