DARTMOOR IS DYING, ITS WILDLIFE IS DECLINING AND DISAPPEARING, AND THE TIME TO DO SOMETHING IS NOW. WILL YOU BE A VOICE FOR NATURE?
Let's march for a wild Dartmoor on SATURDAY 30th SEPTEMBER! Most of the land on Dartmoor is owned by Prince William. We need the Prince to publicly commit to restore nature on his land. So, on Saturday 30th September you are invited to gather together with thousands of local people to lay down the gauntlet to REWILD YOUR LAND, OR RELEASE IT TO PUBLIC OWNERSHIP! And guess what... our efforts are starting to make a difference already! This July, a petition with over 71,000 signatures (and counting), triggered a response. The Prince agreed to double the size of Wistman’s Wood! But... ...Wistman’s Wood accounts for just 0.01% of the Dartmoor land under Prince William’s control. In a climate and nature emergency, 0.01% isn't leadership, it's just small potatoes. With your help, we can encourage the Prince to show true leadership and commit to restoring nature on all his land. LET'S CELEBRATE NATURE WITH A DAY OF... ~Music & dance ~Storytelling & performances ~Face painting & family fun ~Local mythology & folklore ~Talks from the scientists & local experts ~And much more! PLANS FOR THE DAY We want the day to be inclusive, rewarding and enjoyable for everyone. We’ll add more information here for where and when to meet, what to bring and crucially… what costume to plan! WHAT DO WE WANT? We're calling on the Prince to publicly commit to:
Without a public commitment to take these steps to restore nature on his land, we ask that it be released into public ownership. Click here to attend the Facebook event.
