Whilst Cumbria is well known for the Lake District and our lakes and mountains it is the county with the greatest diversity of semi-natural habitat. By supporting Cumbria Wildlife Trust you will help fund the management of over 3,000 hectares of nature reserves in Cumbria, which include ancient woodlands, flower-rich meadows, extensive dune systems, limestone pavements and outstanding wetland habitats. I hope you agree, something that is very important to do in a county with more sites of national and international importance than any other county in England.
