Meadows have shaped our history and culture for centuries, yet most have been lost – and the precious few that remain are still at risk. But there is hope, with your support we can protect what’s left and restore so much more.
Will you help protect our national treasures?
Our corporate partners benefit from 35 years of experience in nature restoration so they can achieve real impact.

Silene latifolia
White Campion is a common wildflower of grassland and waste ground. Its cheerful white flowers can be seen from spring to autumn.
The clear white flowers of the White Campion have five petals, each deeply notched and almost divided into two and its opposite, oval leaves and stems are hairy. In places where it grows with Red Campion, the two may hybridise to produce pinky white blooms.
White Campion grows on waste ground, disturbed roadside verges, hedgerows and well-drained arable field margins. It is in flower from May to October. It’s common throughout the British Isles, but has declined slightly at the western edge of its range.
