Beaver Trust is a nature restoration charity run by a small team of environmentalists and supported by a growing network of beaver believers, working to bring beavers back home to Britain and make space for nature in this time of ecological and climate crisis.

We help find practical, scalable and financially viable ways to make space for beavers and their wetlands and help landholders, angling groups, farmers, foresters, conservationists and communities to live alongside beavers and wetlands again by listening, aligning interests and catalysing change.
