Help us create a wilder Ingleborough
Ingleborough and its iconic foothills are the last stronghold for rare and threatened species that are found nowhere else in the world.
Protecting wildlife in Yorkshire
Together with our supporters and volunteers, we are committed to creating a Yorkshire rich in wildlife for everyone. From saving our wildlife and wild places to bringing people closer to nature, we have a vision of a wilder future.
Hello Flower!
We’ve created a Limited Edition, gift set of five stunning wildflower pin badges, to support our work in the Yorkshire Dales.
With a bloom for every mood, our collectable pin badges will add a flourish of colour to your day!
Wear a little piece of Wild Ingleborough wherever you go.
Get involved
There are loads of ways to experience and support Yorkshire's amazing wildlife and wild places! From visiting our nature reserves to events, membership and opportunities, find out about how to get involved.
