The Upton Heath Emergency Appeal

Target: £35000.00
Raised So Far: £39260.20
 
Donate

On 9th June, Dorset's largest heath fire in decades engulfed Upton Heath nature reserve destroying 140 acres and killing wildlife.

With your help, we can restore this habitat back to its former glory with the sight of basking sand lizards, swathes of yellow spikes of bog asphodel and the churr of nightjar filling the evening air.

£10 replaces a waymarking post
£20 purchases 10m of fencing to establish a new grazing scheme
£50 trains and equips a volunteer warden
£100 supports a schools-orientated education event at Upton Heath
£250 purchases new emergency equipment, including walkie talkies and protective clothing
£500 purchases one Shetland cow, a breed particularly suited to heathland grazing

Please give as much as you can afford; every little helps!

As well as donating online you can also donate by telephone on 01305 264620 between 9am and 5pm (Monday to Friday), send a cheque made payable to "Dorset Wildlife Trust" c/o Upton Heath Fire Appeal, Dorset Wildlife Trust, Brooklands Farm, Forston, Dorchester. DT2 7AA or text WILD46 followed by the amount you want to give (£5, £10 etc.) to 70070

Thank you from all of us at Dorset Wildlife Trust
