Improving access on nature reserves
Find out how we’ve been improving accessibility on some of our key nature reserves, providing easier access for as wide a range of visitors as possible.
Devon Nature Reserves Fund

Nature reserve sees moor improvements
A much-loved Dartmoor’s nature reserve has undergone vital conservation work which will benefit its precious wildlife.
Events and filming on DWT nature reserves
Devon Wildlife Trust’s nature reserves have been featured world-wide in TV series and feature films, they’ve also been the setting for many cultural and other events. No wonder: the 50+ wild spaces we look after contain some of the UK’s most dramatic scenery and awe-inspiring nature. If you are thinking of using one of our nature reserves for your event – large or small - for any commercial or charitable activity, then you must contact us first and seek permission.
Nature reserves remain open, but keep it local
Devon Wildlife Trust announces that its nature reserves will remain open during lockdown, but the message is people should stay local and observe national lockdown restrictions.
Donate to Speccott Moor
Speccott Moor is a Culm grassland site supporting rare wildflowers, insects and wetland birds. But it has no legal protection. The current owner is happy for DWT to buy the land and turn it into our newest nature reserve - can you help with a donation today?
