	The Wildlife Trusts partnership - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Royal Society of Wildlife Trusts (RSWT), an independent charity, is also part of the partnership and acts as an umbrella group for the local Wildlife Trusts, as well as operating a separate grants unit which administers a number of funds.
		The first independent Trust was formed in Norfolk in 1926 as the Norfolk Naturalists Trust, and it was not until the 1940s and 1950s that a number of new Naturalists' Trusts were formed in Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, West Wales, Leicestershire and Cambridgeshire.

		Julian Branscombe, chief executive of Gwent Wildlife Trust, said: "It could be years before the habitat recovers, it's quite catastrophic because of the importance of the site and the longevity of the impact.
		Wildlife and plantlife ranging from skylarks, adders and crowberries have also suffered, as well as insects.

	Severn barrage would 'threaten endangered fish' claims Wildlife Trust (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Wildlife trusts in Wales have claimed that two endangered species of fish could be lost forever from the UK if plans for a barrage in the Severn Estuary, near Burnham-On-Sea, get the go-ahead.
		The six trusts, along with other conservation organisations, are opposing plans to build a 10-mile barrage between Brean Down, near Burnham, and Lavernock Point in Wales.
		The Wildlife Trusts are concerned that the plan could mean the loss of two rare fish - the allis shad and the twaite shad (pictured).

		The trust hopes to record the whereabouts of the trees to protect them from being destroyed in future.
		Trust conservation officer Steven Rogers said pubs often acted as clues to their whereabouts since many were named after trees such as Royal Oak and Chequers (the common name for the now-rare service tree).
		Three of the largest and oldest trees discovered so far are a yew at Mamhilad, near Pontypool, with a girth of 11.65m, an oak at Llantilio Crossenny, in Monmouthshire, with a girth of 10m and an oak at Wonastow, near Monmouth, with a girth of 10.65m.

	Your Local Trust
		The Wildlife Trusts is the largest grouping of charitable organisations in the United Kingdom concerned with the conservation of the whole of the UK's natural world.
		Each of the 47 Wildlife Trusts is an independent, autonomous charity with its own trustees, whose primary concern is the conservation of nature within its own geographical area.
		The local Trusts are split into regions; a single Trust covers Scotland; Wales has six Trusts which work increasingly closely together; there are Trusts for Ulster, the Isle of Man, Alderney and the Isles of Scilly and 36 Trusts across England largely based on the old county boundaries or small groupings of such counties.

		Mike Townsend, Chief Executive of the Woodland Trust comments: “If this development were to go ahead, it would lead to one of the the greatest losses of (albeit replanted) ancient woodland in the UK since the building of the Channel Tunnel.

		The Gwent Wildlife Trust is likely to have concerns about the scale, appropriateness and general sustainability of the built development aspects of the developer’s proposal.
		The Gwent Wildlife Trust recognises the desirability of allowing increased public access to Hendre Woods, providing that this is done in a manner which does not damage the existing wildlife value or unduly constrain the great opportunities for wildlife from the restoration of the replanted areas.
		However, I shall be disappointed if the Forestry Commission does not seek a revision to the plans to avoid significant impacts, and I hope this letter can form a basis for reappraisal of the development by your organisation.
