People Need Nature

Nature Doesn’t Need People, But People Need Nature.

People Need Nature is a charity which highlights the positive relationship between people and nature; and the many benefits that nature provides to us.

We advocate for nature as a source of inspiration; the Spiritual value of nature; and the value of nature in public policies and places.

We are focused on achieving long term positive change for nature, rather than short term fixes.

Although not a membership based charity, we work with a wide range of groups and organisations, as funding partners and in collaboration on activities in pursuit of our aims.

We work with arts organisations including the Poetry Society; with landowners including the Duchy of Cornwall and Dorchester Town Council; and with other charities including Sustain.

Our Poundbury Nature Project won best Environmental Project in the Dorchester Civic Society Derek Beauchamp Awards 2024.
