The Reserve is managed and cared for by our volunteer group – The Friends of Drumnaph.
At The Friends of Drumnaph, we’re committed to supporting the nature reserve in many ways, and we rely on the generosity and involvement of people like
you to continue our vital work. There are many ways to get involved and contribute, from individual donations and legacy gifts, to corporate partnerships and volunteering.
Your support plays a crucial role in protecting Drumnaph’s diverse ecosystems. Donations help safeguard species and habitats, including our ancient woodlands and wetlands, ensuring they remain healthy and thriving. Through habitat restoration, we actively rejuvenate the land by planting native species and managing invasive plants. Our commitment to sustainable management practices, like environmentally conscious woodland care, ensures the long-term ecological balance of this cherished natural space.
Maintaining the beauty and accessibility of Drumnaph is a key priority, and is made possible by your contributions. Funds go towards keeping our pathways and facilities safe and welcoming for all visitors, ensuring everyone can enjoy the natural surroundings. Regular upkeep of benches, signage, and picnic areas also plays an important role in enhancing the visitor experience and preserving the charm of the landscape.
Drumnaph isn’t just a nature reserve – it’s a community hub, offering events and programmes that connect people with nature. Your support allows us to host guided walks, festivals, and health and wellbeing activities, creating opportunities for people to engage with the natural world. Additionally, your contributions help expand our volunteer programmes, giving individuals of all ages the chance to participate in meaningful conservation work and community events.
Your support ensures Drumnaph remains a vibrant place for nature and the community, creating a lasting legacy for generations to come. Every donation, no matter the size, has a tangible impact. To find out more about how you can support us, select the relevant link below.
