Heal Rewilding is a new charity raising money to purchase land, initially in England, in order for it to be rewilded. The organisation claims that the UK is one of most nature-depleted countries in the world, and as well as returning land to its natural state its aim is to attract people to these areas so they can learn about rewilding, ecology and sustainable living. It also says its activities will create jobs, so supporting local economies.
Its first project is Heal South, for which it is aiming to raise £7m in order to rewild 500 acres in an as yet undisclosed southern county. It is also setting up a network for 14- to 30-year-olds called Heal Future, whereby young people will advise it on its strategy and have the opportunity to suggest ideas.
