Derbyshire Wildlife Trust has today launched Wilder Derbyshire 2030, a bold and hopeful strategy to reverse the decline in the county’s wildlife — powered by people and rooted in local action, equity, and green skills.

The launch comes alongside a stark new State of Nature in Derbyshire report, revealing that at least five much-loved bird species — the willow tit, marsh tit, hawfinch, spotted flycatcher, and lesser spotted woodpecker — have suffered steep declines in the county. The lesser spotted woodpecker is now on the brink of disappearing locally.

These declines are being driven by habitat loss, unsustainable land use, species persecution, and climate change. But Derbyshire Wildlife Trust says this crisis can still be turned around if people are empowered and supported to act.
