Collaven Moor appeal
Can you help buy land for wildlife on the edge of Dartmoor?
We have an exciting opportunity to buy Collaven Moor, protect its amazing wildlife, and to double the size of an existing DWT nature reserve on the edge of Dartmoor. But we need your help!
Collaven Moor is already home to rare and important plants that support threatened butterflies, moths and birds. But with no legal protection as a wildlife site, species here could be at risk unless DWT can purchase the land for nature. Your donation would get us closer to the target!
Protecting wildlife for the future
