Heal’s name is its vision: heal the land, heal nature, heal ourselves. Through involvement with Heal, individuals and businesses are becoming part of a new movement taking direct action to bring back nature through rewilding and to combat climate change.
Biodiversity loss in the UK is continuing at a shocking rate, with 41% of species in decline since 1970 and nearly a thousand species threatened with extinction. Urbanisation continues to disconnect people from the nature which they are part. Climate change increasingly threatens life itself. Benefact Group’s generous contributions are enabling us to welcome more visitors to our first site, 460-acres of ecologically depleted land in Somerset.
By resourcing corporate visitors and volunteers we will benefit both them and our work. All our visitors will spend time in nature, which we know has positive effects on people's health and wellbeing. We will also foster a sense of connection and engagement, inspiring people to become advocates for rewilding and feel empowered to make change. This will lead to increased awareness, funding, and long-term sustainability for our first rewilding site and those to come, ensuring the preservation of safe spaces for nature in the UK, for ourselves and future generations.
