The Wildlife Trust
aims for Birmingham and the Black Country to become recognised as a leading
green region, where nature is valued by everyone and wildlife habitats are
protected, restored and expanded. They have achieved many successes already,
including the creation of many wildflower meadows, improved management of local
woodlands and wetlands, working with volunteers to manage their local nature
reserves, welcoming hundreds of thousands of people to those reserves, and
engaging thousands of families and children through education programmes.
Vision: for
Birmingham and the Black Country to have more wildlife, more wild places and
more people with a strong connection to the natural world every year.
Mission: recognising
the importance of our unique natural heritage, shaped by local history, we will
protect and restore the natural environment by:
·
leading by
example, demonstrating what is possible in an urban area to protect and create
wildlife-rich accessible natural spaces.
·
connecting
everyone with nature, recognising that we all - individuals, communities, local
authorities and businesses - have a vital role to play in nature’s recovery.
·
championing
the natural environment, inspiring, challenging and influencing people to stand
up for nature.
·
working in
partnerships to achieve the best results for nature.
·
using data,
monitoring and evidence to inform our priorities and decision - making, and to
measure our impact.
