If you want to give nature a chance, step up! ✊ Follow us to help turn all moors into wild moors.

Congratulations Mary Creagh CBE MP on your appointment to Defra UK. We look forward to working with you to protect and restore the uplands, including by reviving peatlands, accelerating tree planting and tackling illegal bird of prey persecution.

From rewetting peat bogs to reviving clough woodlands, regenerating ancient grasslands and heathlands, Peak District NT is leading the way in upland restoration. Thrilled to see Natural England and Tony Juniper recognise this model for uplands across the UK!

An abundance of benefits are unlocked for nature, climate and people when moors are restored: 🐦 Wildlife and biodiversity 🌍 Carbon storage 💧 Clean water 🏘️ Flood protection 👷‍♂️ Green jobs and skills Together, we can turn degraded moors into wild moors.

This makes us love Tarras Valley Nature Reserve, the UK's largest community-led moorland restoration project, even more! 🫶

The peatlands are the UK’s Amazon rainforest- unique, spectacular & globally important. It is vital we protect and restore them. Bog ugly, but totally magnificent: peatlands are finally getting the respect they deserve | Sophie Yeo | The Guardian theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Have you ever wanted to get THIS close to sphagnum? Then we have just added the events for YOU this summer and autumn.⁠ ⁠ Sphagnum planting days plus invasive species clearance days plus moorland conservation days. Get stuck in! thebmc.co.uk/en/get-involve…

The inglorious 12th tomorrow. Left is a driven grouse moor. A completely devastated landscape. On the right an alternative vision. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🌳

The so-called 'Glorious Twelfth' is anything but glorious. Carbon-rich peatlands are burnt and countless wild animals are trapped and snared—all so that grouse can be shot for 'sport'. It's time for change!

Attention, Steve Reed MP! Peat moorlands have been burned and hundreds of thousands of wild animals have been killed to prepare for the grouse shooting season. It’s time to step in to protect wildlife and the environment. wildmoors.org.uk/conservationis…

It's fantastic to see the shallow pools of water, created by #peatlandrestoration works on Exmoor, filling up with incredible peat-forming sphagnum mosses only 6 months on from when they were created.

The best way to manage moorland is by working with nature.🌿 Our goal is to restore the uplands to boost wildlife and habitats, tackle climate change and prevent flooding. Simple.🤷 Big on nature. Big on impact.👊

Scotland has licensed grouse moors, enhancing powers to combat wildlife crime and environmental harm. Grouse moors associated with wildlife crime or environmental harm risk suspension of their license, leading to closure. England must do the same. ft.com/content/88f3ea…

Did you know we're doing large-scale habitat restoration at Glen Prosen in the southern Cairngorms?  To help us monitor the work over coming years we're using fixed-point photography.  Check out these images from year one of this visual survey. More: forestryandland.gov.scot/what-we-do/pla…

Turning degraded moors into wild moors is a win for nature, the climate and people. Follow @WildMoorsUK to get closer to nature and help us protect and restore it.

Huge congratulations to the @NationalTrust for reaching its nature restoration targets. Every acre of land restored for nature, the climate and people counts. We look forward to following the next stages of this monumental effort. wildmoors.org.uk/national-trust…
