Come and be part of a global voice for wild plants and fungi
This autumn, help us find Britain’s most colourful and important fungi – waxcaps.
Fungi are crucial to nearly all life on Earth, but they are not given the recognition and investment they deserve. Will you join our mission to change that?
Our corporate partners benefit from 35 years of experience in nature restoration so they can achieve real impact.

This is entirely your decision, but the main things to consider are:
You can ask that your gift is put towards a specific geographic area of Plantlife’s work (e.g. England, Wales, Scotland or Internationally). However, it is likely that Plantlife will not receive your gift for sometime after you have made your will, so if your gift is unrestricted we can use it where it is most needed at the time.
If you would like your gift to be linked to a specific part of our work please contact us before you finalise your will, so we check that we are able to meet your wishes.
If Plantlife is a beneficiary in a will or codicil that you are administrating please contact
Sarah.Williams@plantlife.org.uk or enquiries@plantlife.org.uk and we can send you our ‘guide for executors and legal professionals dealing with an estate’ which names Plantlife as a beneficiary.
Alternatively, please forward a copy of the will and any codicil(s) to confirm entitlement to: Plantlife, Brewery House, 36 Milford Street, Salisbury, Wiltshire, SP1 2AP.
