Devon Wildlife Trust

DWT has worked on protecting and improving the environment in north Devon for over 25 years, with staff and volunteers who have an unparalleled knowledge of the techniques required for wetland restoration and re-creation. DWT is developing a good understanding of how wetland contributes to management of water pollution and flood risk (holding water in extreme wet weather events).

DWT promotes a landscape-scale approach to sustainable land management, where an invigorated natural world will become our ally in coping with environmental change. This project provides an exciting opportunity to understand, test and promote the role of wetlands in alleviating flood risk and combating the threats of climate change.
