Restoring Nature: Our Latest Progress on Biodiversity

At The Nature Recovery Project (TNRP), we are excited to share our latest biodiversity milestone: The release of our "Biodiversity Gain 2022-2024" report, a powerful reflection of what determined, land-based action can achieve across the UK.

Over the last two years, we have worked across landscapes to breathe life back into forgotten spaces. With our partners, communities, and dedicated team, we have planted 300,000 trees, created micro ponds, and regenerated soils rich in microbial life. We have witnessed firsthand how quickly nature begins to recover when given the right support.

Why Biodiversity Matters

Biodiversity is the living system we all depend on. Thriving ecosystems clean our air, regulate our climate, support pollinators, and secure food systems. When biodiversity declines, our resilience weakens.

We've seen the difference our efforts can make. From rising soil health, increased fungal and microbial diversity, to the return of rare species like glow-worms, English partridges, and great crested newts. Our sites are buzzing, singing, and glowing again.

Here's what we've achieved:

• 300,000 trees planted to enhance carbon storage and restore wildlife corridors

• 10 micro ponds built to support amphibians, insects, and freshwater species

• Soil revitalisation, with measurable increases in nematodes, fungi, and carbon-rich matter

• Rare species returning to our landscapes a clear sign of ecological success

Every one of these serves as a reminder of the benefits of restoration and how much more is possible.
