Our targets at a glance
1 Restoring nature
We will ensure the 88 nature reserves that we
manage continue to flourish.We will create
three new Living Landscape areas to protect
and improve biodiversity and habitats for wildlife.
BBOWT will stand up for wildlife, fighting to protect
areas recognised for their wildlife value and will work with
partners to improve the wildlife value of land beyond
protected areas.
Beyond areas already protected:
■■ 8% of land rich in wildlife by 2020
■■ 10% rich in wildlife by 2030
■■ 6 Living Landscape schemes in rural and
urban areas
2 Getting people involved
We will make it easier for people from all
backgrounds to visit and cherish their local
nature reserves, green spaces and Living
Landscapes.
We will build on successful urban projects in Oxford
and West Berkshire to connect with communities that are
traditionally less engaged in our work.
We will ensure more schoolchildren and young people
experience nature and wildlife.
By 2021
■■ 20,000 people taking action directly for wildlife
■■ 50,000 schoolchildren visiting our education centres
■■ 40,000 high quality volunteering experiences
