Our mission
Raise money, buy land, rewild it
Heal is raising money to buy land in England and rewild it.
We're giving land back to nature, forever.
Why do we need rewilding?
Ours is one of the most nature-depleted countries, ranking 189th in the world for biodiversity
41%
of UK animal species are in decline
1 in 10
UK species are threatened with extinction
133
species have gone extinct in the UK since the 1500s
Our impact
Heal is committed to becoming the UK's first national rewilding landowner. By rewilding land across England, our work will deliver three major benefits to society:
Degraded
Land that, initially, hosts a poor diversity and abundance of wild animals and plants
Spacious
Land 500+ acres in size to provide space for roaming cattle, pigs, ponies and deer
Buildings
Land with buildings that can be converted to create spaces for public engagement
Accessible
Land that is within one hour's travel from nearby large urban areas by public transport
Our model
Fundraise
Before acquiring a site, we work to find the money needed to buy it
Search
Once we've found the funding, the search for that site can begin
Acquire
After that's sorted, it's time to commit and acquire the site
Survey
Next, we conduct baseline surveys to find out what's there
Rewild
Then the magical process of recovery begins, led by nature
