All Nature: Heal The Wild

In this, the first episode of the Carbon Copy Podcast’s latest series, All Nature, we meet Jan Stannard and Dan Hill, of charity Heal Rewilding, at their first site on the outskirts of Frome in Somerset. We reveal the worrying state of nature in the UK, and how Jan and her colleagues felt compelled to address this. We discover the huge ambition of Heal Rewilding to create nature rich environments in every county of England, and we hear about the amazing network of different people and organisations working to renew and restore nature across the UK. "...the only way for nature to recover is for it to have more room, more space dedicated to it. It can't just be the edges of farmland, but dedicated spaces that are new are fundamental to nature's recovery. What we have to remember is England, out of 240 countries and territories in the world, England is in 234th place where one is best. So the state of nature in England is absolutely on the floor. This can't happen soon enough." - Jan Stannard, Heal Co-FounderListen to Heal The Wild now, to: Find out what rewilding is, and why it is important. Hear about the exciting species that are already present on site at Heal Somerset, after just the first 18 months. Learn more about how to get involved with nature restoration. Take the chance to help Heal Rewilding to find new sites for their ambitious programme! ----------------------------------------------------------Show Notes Read Heal Rewilding’s story on Carbon Copy: https://carboncopy.eco/initiatives/heal-rewilding  Support Heal Rewilding by sponsoring a square of land: https://www.healrewilding.org.uk/heal3x3  Find out more about rewilding: https://carboncopy.eco/community/rewild-land  Read the State of Nature report: https://stateofnature.org.uk/ Discover more rewilding organisations via Rewilding Britain: https://www.rewildingbritain.org.uk/ Read about the Knepp Estate: https://knepp.co.uk/  Read about the Beaver Trust: https://beavertrust.org/ Read about The Beaver Project: https://www.cornwallwildlifetrust.org.uk/what-we-do/our-conservation-work/on-land/beavers/cornwall-beaver-project Read about The Grange Project: https://www.grangeproject.co.uk/ Read more about the New To Nature programme from Groundwork: https://www.groundwork.org.uk/new-to-nature-legacy/ Read about Wild Ken Hill: https://carboncopy.eco/initiatives/wild-ken-hill   Hosted on Acast.
