Learn about the visit that brought together YLGs and partners from the intergenerational nature restoration projects; Green Shoots at Grow Wilder (Bristol), the Penpont Project (Wales) and Heartwood Project (Derbyshire). 

From January to May 2024, 20 Year 7 students from North Liverpool Academy embarked on an inspiring journey with Action for Conservation (AFC) through our WildED education programme.

AFC’s Penpont Project Team and Youth Leadership Group (YLG) member Hana Salih joined farmers and fisherpeople from across the UK to celebrate the launch of We Feed the UK, a new photographic exhibition curated by The Gaia Foundation.

I wrote this entry for the Black Women in History “Saluting Our Sisters” because I wanted to honor the many Black women throughout the history of conservation work.

Oats would certainly have been grown on the Penpont estate since medieval times, read this blog to learn more about how we’re bringing them back!

AFC has encouraged me to ask questions, it's a wonderful thing to be able to spend time in a group where you don't feel silly for not knowing something, plus it's helped me develop my environmental knowledge the best way possible!

Action for Conservation’s Youth-Led Nature Restoration Initiative - ‘Penpont Project’ – is a finalist for Ecover’s Fertilise the Future Fund! The project has been selected as one of nine UK-based projects – and the only one in Wales, to secure the fund we need your support!
