The WHGT campaigns to save historic gardens and parks from neglect, indifference, insensitive planning and inappropriate planting for future generations.

Bamff Wildland
Bamff Wildland is a pioneering family-run rewilding project in North East Perthshire. Twenty years since beavers began unravelling and reimagining our waterways, we are turning over farmland to nature in perpetuity. Ecological restoration at Bamff began in the early 1990s with the re-creation of wetlands through reverse drainage schemes and the planting of various native woodlands. This was followed in 2002 by the pioneering introduction of beavers. At the start of the 2020s, we initiated a catalysed rewilding project to create a richly biodiverse area of wild land out of 180 hectares of marginal farmland and plantations. The long term aim is to allow all of this land to become self willed – a self regenerating mosaic of dynamically evolving habitats and their associated wildlife species. This happens by putting nature back in charge and ultimately withdrawing the influence of humanity: to rewild. In 2022, we began working in partnership with 10 neighbouring landowners to restore waterways on a wider landscape scale, through a new project called Braes of Alyth: Wild Cores and Corridors. This pioneering work will create new 'corridors' of nature-rich habitat weaving through two sub-catchments of the River Isla, reconnecting biodiversity 'cores' such as Bamff and fragments of ancient woodland within an actively farmed landscape. By remeandering straightened channels and restoring woodland cover over denuded streams, we will support the participating landowners to revive biodiversity and deliver natural flood mitigation alongside existing land use.

Wolves And Humans Foundation
The Wolves and Humans Foundation is a UK based charity dedicated to the conservation of Europe’s large carnivores - the wolf, brown bear and lynx. Wolves and Humans works with people and local communities to find practical solutions to co-existence with wolves and other large carnivores, helping their long-term conservation. Working in partnership with local biologists and conservationists in their home countries, Wolves and Humans provides resources, education and training, with the aim of restoring traditional methods of protecting livestock and preventing attacks by predators. We also carry out monitoring of large carnivores to establish accurate population sizes, as official figures are often overestimated, and carries out research to assess their impact on wild prey species and domestic livestock, and how large carnivores live in areas affected by human activity, helping to dispel misconceptions and provide a sound basis for future conservation and management decisions. Wolves and Humans works with educators to provide educational materials and give lectures and workshops for adults and children about predators, the natural environment in which they live, and the benefits to people of the continued existence of healthy ecosystems.

The Association For Coastal Ecosystem Services
The Association for Coastal Ecosystem Services (ACES) is a Scottish registered charity set up with the aim of conserving coastal habitats in tropical regions whilst working towards alleviating poverty around such habitats. The mechanism for achieving this is through the use of payments for ecosystem services, primarily carbon based credit schemes. It’s first pioneering project, a community based payment-for-ecosystem services conservation project called Mikoko Pamoja was set up by the communities of Gazi and Makongeni to conserve their nearby mangrove forests. In doing so, the carbon that has be stored as a result of these forests not being cut down, has meant that the communities are able to benefit from the sale of carbon credits, issued by the Plan Vivo Foundation, a third party, independent non-profit organization also based in Scotland. The money earned from these credits to date, has funded communal community development projects such as supplying new roofing materials for Gazi primary school and by paying for new books for the school of Macongeni Village. Through research and education, The Association for Coastal Ecosystem Services has assisted in building capacity for the project, in order to ensure its long-term persistence. Together with numerous research institutions and other non-profit organizations, ACES hopes Mikoko Pamoja can act as a model for a successful payments-for-ecosystems services project in East Africa, the first of its kind with a focus of mangrove conservation and poverty alleviation. We hope to expand our efforts in the future, with partners and private individuals who wish to contribute, making a difference for the people living in these volatile regions of the world, and the habitats that surround them.

Natural Order
Natural Order is a philosophical framework for civilisational transformation — drawn not from ideology or politics, but from life itself. Over 3.7 billion years of evolution, nature has refined three core principles that govern all living systems. Natural Order applies these principles to human society as the foundation for a new world-view: sustainable, enduring, and applicable across every economy and culture. Launching in Spring 2027, Natural Order operates collaboratively across three fronts — Oneness (fostering deep, systems-based world-views), Enlightenment (raising humanity's level of being through elevated value systems), and Minimalism (encouraging simpler patterns of living and de-cluttered economies). Structured as a group of companies headed by a registered foundation, Natural Order generates its funding through non-profit and commercial activities delivered by dedicated associate companies — ensuring clear focus, untethered impact, and absolute dedication to the core mission. Not a policy document. Not a manifesto. A new basis for how humanity organises everything.
