Fundraise

Every penny you raise helps to create a world where healthy wetland nature thrives and enriches lives.

Your support whether £10 or £10,000 will go towards helping us create, restore and protect more wetland habitats. You will be helping to protect these places for generations to come.

Follow our step by step guide below or go straight to create your Just Giving page. You can also fundraise while you shop.

1. Choose your endeavour

This is exciting, you can do anything you want to fundraise. Choose something you like, or a challenge you want to achieve, or just something silly which will make you and others happy. Remember this isn’t just for WWT this is for you too!
