Working with businesses
Everyone has a part to play in nature’s recovery. We believe that by working together, we can better achieve our vision of a Dorset alive with nature, where everyone can experience and enjoy wildlife.
That's why we’re proud to work with local businesses across Dorset – to build trusting and enduring partnerships based on mutual respect and shared responsibility. We believe that people taking action in the places where they live and work is a powerful force for change so through all our relationships, we look to achieve local impact.
Nature is good for business
We know nature is good for us, yet huge numbers of people are cut off from its benefits. Similarly, our wild places can absorb huge amounts of carbon and other greenhouse gases, but the UK is one of the most nature-depleted places in the world.
If we act now to protect wild places and restore those that are damaged, we can start winning the fight against the climate and ecological emergency and bring wildlife back into everybody’s lives. By working in partnership with us, your business can not only help nature’s recovery and tackle the climate emergency but also benefit your employee wellbeing and customer engagement. We offer a choice of two packages to suit your needs:
A powerful investment in your future
With over 60 years of conservation experience and 42 nature reserves across Dorset, we are uniquely placed to deliver meaningful, nature-based experiences that benefit both people and the environment.
A big thank you to our current corporate supporters for protecting, restoring and campaigning for Dorset’s wildlife and wild places.
