Wildacres is proof that nature recovery works. As Ireland’s only dedicated biodiversity education destination, we help organisations turn sustainability ambitions into meaningful action.

Every corporate partnership directly supports biodiversity restoration and environmental education, with 100% of donations invested in projects that benefit nature.

From overgrazed farmland to a thriving reserve supporting more than 75 bird species and 8 of Ireland’s 9 native bat species, Wildacres demonstrates what is possible when people, communities and businesses come together to invest in nature.

Through reporting, storytelling and engagement opportunities, you will be able to see, understand, and share the difference your support is making for nature.
