What is the Big Wild Walk?

The Big Wild Walk is The Wildlife Trusts' annual fundraising challenge!

Set your own challenge to run, cycle, walk or roll, while fundraising to protect the wildlife you love. How far you go and where you take part is completely up to you, whether that's climbing the height of a mountain on your stairs, or swimming laps of your local pond. All the funds raised will help us achieve our goal of securing 30% of land and sea for nature's recovery by 2030.

The Big Wild Walk is now over for 2023... but we'll be back next year!

Thank you so much to everyone who took part, you're wildlife heroes! You can still donate and help save the wildlife on your doorstep.

I’d definitely recommend the Big Wild Walk to anyone! It’s a great way to get out into nature.

How does taking part help wildlife?

Wildlife is disappearing at an alarming rate and the threat of climate catastrophe is a constant worry. The Wildlife Trusts are calling for at least 30% of our land and sea to be connected and protected for nature’s recovery by 2030. Funds raised from the Big Wild Walk will go directly towards helping us achieve this goal. From campaigning for protected areas at sea to allow our precious marine wildlife to recover, to working with landowners and community groups to create wildlife-friendly spaces, your donations help us to bring wildlife back across the UK and in the Isle of Man and Alderney.
