One special place. One final chance to secure it.

This August, your gift can help secure one of the UK's most important landscapes for wildlife.

Thanks to the generosity of the Dixon Foundation and Ringtons, every donation will be doubled up to £100,000, meaning your gift could have twice the impact for nature.

With the September purchase deadline approaching, this is your chance to help protect it for future generations.

That means every donation made in August will be doubled, up to £100,000.

Each £1 given becomes £2, don't miss this last opportunity to make twice the impact for wildlife, helping to protect and restore one of the most important landscapes in the UK before the September purchase deadline.

Why The Rothbury Estate matters.

The Rothbury Estate is more than a beautiful place. It's a landscape alive with possibility. A living, breathing refuge for wildlife that is scarcely found today in
Britain at this scale.

It's 3,800 hectares of life-filled river, land and sky. The Rothbury Estate is brimming with potential.

And we have one chance to secure it for nature.

What you've already helped achieve.

Nature recovery has already begun. Thanks to donations and philanthropic loans, Wildlife Trusts were able to bring part of the Estate into conservation ownership in late 2024.

• Nature restoration work is underway.
• Grassland recovery is beginning.
• Wildlife surveys are expanding knowledge of the landscape.
• Peatland restoration plans are developing.
• Partnerships are growing with universities, community groups and neighbouring estates.

The momentum is there. Now we need to secure the future of the whole landscape.

One chance. Double the impact.

The opportunity to secure The Rothbury Estate won't come again.

With just weeks remaining until the September deadline, every donation made this August will be doubled until £100,000 of match funding has been used.

Your gift could help protect rivers, restore habitats and secure a future for wildlife across this extraordinary landscape.

Please donate today and have your impact doubled.

This match appeal has been made possible thanks to the generous support of the Dixon Foundation and Ringtons. 

Their £100,000 match funding pledge means every donation made during August can be doubled, helping protect this remarkable landscape and the wildlife that depends on it. We are enormously grateful for their commitment to nature's recovery.

If you would like to discuss a major gift, please contact The Wildlife Trusts' head of major gifts Debbie Johnson.

All funds raised - including any funds raised over our target amount - will go towards nature’s recovery at The Rothbury Estate. 

In the event we don’t raise enough funds to purchase the entire Estate or we are unable to complete the purchase for any reason, funds raised will go towards nature's recovery in the Simonside Hills and surrounding areas.
