We aim for our partnerships to grow and deepen, working as trusted partners alongside businesses to embed nature‑based solutions, build resilience, and communicate impact with confidence and credibility.
How our charity of the year partnerships work
Each partnership is bespoke by design, shaped around your organisation’s priorities, locations and people, and is typically established above a minimum investment threshold and period, to ensure that it directly and effectively enables our work to protect wildlife and wild places across the British Isles.
If you are considering a Charity of the Year partnership, we welcome an initial conversation about your ambitions and the type of impact you are seeking to achieve. If you’re looking for a local partnership, please reach out to your local Wildlife Trust.
Engage your people and deliver real impact for nature
As a Charity of the Year partner, you can inspire your workforce, and make a tangible, long‑term contribution to nature’s recovery. Your partnership might include initiatives such as employee volunteering, fundraising and matched giving, nature‑based wellbeing activities, learning and engagement programmes, or storytelling linked to real restoration projects - shaped around what works best for your organisation.

Spotlight: Hogan Lovells
We are proud to have been supported by global law firm Hogan Lovells over a number of years, including as their official UK charity partner from 2020–2023.
During the partnership, more than a quarter of UK staff took action for nature - contributing pro bono legal expertise to major nature recovery programmes, taking part in Wild Work Days, and engaging with the nature and climate crises. Employees also raised over £233,000 through creative fundraising challenges, from abseiling 34 metres down their London office to cycling Land’s End to John O’Groats.
Hogan Lovells continue to be strong advocates for nature’s recovery, providing ongoing pro bono support and helping convene business and government to advance ambitious action on biodiversity.
