Gift membership - the ideal gift for wildlife enthusiasts & nature lovers

Membership of Cumbria Wildlife Trust is one of the best gifts I have ever received. I have spent the last year discovering new places and learning more about my local wildlife.

The gift that cares for nature

From just £3.50* a month (that's from just £42* for the year).

Last order date in time for Christmas delivery: 17 December (any orders received after this date will be processed in January).

By giving a gift membership you're supporting vital work for Cumbria's wildlife & wild places whilst treating your loved ones to wildlife magazines, guides and a host of other benefits throughout the year. Wildlife has a special place in all our hearts; from owls to otters, and badgers and bees, being surrounded by the wonders of nature makes us happier and healthier.

Choose from family, joint, and individual gift membership. Order a gift membership *based on Individual membership.

The needs for funds is ever present - we simply would not be able to continue our vital work without membership income.

A gift membership helps to buy and care for nature reserves in Cumbria.
It helps the Trust to inspire the next generation of wildlife conservationists.
It helps the Trust tackle some of the biggest threats to Cumbria's wildlife.
Being part of The Wildlife Trust movement gives Cumbria Wildlife Trust the driving force to stand up for wildlife and nature conservation on a national scale too.
