A wildlife and Heritage Education Centre - the region’s only guaranteed chance for children to see and learn about British wildlife close up


Today’s child spends just 9% of their time outdoors. Nature is often seen as irrelevant, even frightening. What hope is there for the conservation of wildlife if this continues? Yet once children experience the wonder of wildlife close up all that changes. Lifelong concern and action can be bred.


With your help we can:


l Build a new Wildlife Education Centre in the heart of Secret World. This will be the first time children will be able to visit to see for example badgers, foxes, deer, hedgehogs, birds of prey close up;


l Employ an Education Officer to run programmes for school visits to Secret World and visits to their schools to share learning about wildlife and - because Secret World was once a dairy farm dating back to the 17th century - share learning about the heritage of Somerset Levels farming;


l Share valuable skills and support schools to run conservation projects to make a lasting difference to wildlife.
