A wilder future
Our village is a beautiful place, but we can do so much more to protect our local environment. We want to help create a wilder, greener and more natural Datchet that's buzzing with pollinators, teeming with wildflowers and alive with birdsong.

Environmental action

We work to improve biodiversity and promote a green, clean, safe environment for future generations

Nature for everyone

We provide free, accessible environmental education and experiences for all local people

Green Community

We connect likeminded, nature-loving individuals to grow local green community
Objectives
​
Wild About Datchet was set up in January 2019 with three main objectives:
  1. Improve biodiversity and promote a green, clean, safe environment for future generations
  2. Provide free, accessible environmental education and experiences for all local people
  3. Connect likeminded, nature-loving individuals to grow a local green community
Support 
In June 2019, Wild About Datchet was granted funding from local charity the Barker Bridge House Trust. Their support has enabled us to deliver surveys, events, practical conservation volunteering, and education.
 
In August, WAD was granted funding from the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead towards the building of insect houses. By boosting invertebrate life, this project will improve local plant health for removal of atmospheric carbon dioxide and airborne pollutants.
