What fundraising money is used for?
The funds raised will help us continue to protect what makes south and west London so special. The rivers, green spaces, parks and historic landscapes of south and west London are under threat from impacts of human behaviour; habitat destruction, fragmentation, climate change, neglect and competing commercial interests.
We are working hard to protect our rich natural and historic heritage for all our local communities to treasure and enjoy. Find out more about our work and our projects.
