The Trust is pleased to announce it has recently acquired Palmers Brook, its first dedicated nature reserve. This acquisition is a significant opportunity for the Trust which looks forward to restoring the natural capital of Palmers Brook increasing biodiversity and protecting wildlife, so this unique piece of land becomes a haven space for nature in perpetuity.
The Trust has been pleased to provide financial support to the HIWWT assisting with its ongoing costs whilst carrying out its invaluable work in the preservation and conservation of the habitat and wildlife of the region.
Both James Tuttiett and Amelia, his wife, have served as founding trustees of the South Downs Trust and the JTCT has provided financial support, initially with matched funding to establish an endowment.
This early gift helped the South Downs Trust build momentum and confidence for a successful fundraising campaign and subsequent funding assistance has provided specific project support.
