New Networks for Nature was a nature charity that began in 2009 and which made the difficult decision to close in 2024.

It was a broad alliance of creators, including poets, authors, scientists, film makers, visual artists, environmentalists, musicians and composers, whose work drew strongly on the natural environment.

Our annual meetings grew out of dissatisfaction with the low political priority placed upon nature in the UK. We recognised that our wildlife and landscapes were so often evaluated exclusively in economic or scientific terms when, in fact, they are a resource at the very heart of human creativity. The natural world is central to our cultural life.  

New Networks for Nature reflected these truths and celebrated them.
