The thing I love most about Australia, since moving from the UK in 2009, has been having the opportunity to explore this beautiful, wild, rugged country. It saddens me when I see these places mistreated or placed in harm’s way & I love the work that For Wild Places does in protecting them. From holding major fundraising trail running events to encouraging the simple act of picking up trash on the trails, For Wild Places is making a difference. I hope to see you on the trails soon” – Lauren Beels
Nature has always provided a safe space for me to be myself. It doesn’t demand, it doesn’t judge – it just lets me be. I joined FWP to be part of a movement that actually protects nature, so that it can continue to be available to enable others to thrive when they are outdoors” – Elanor Finch
We love our Collective Members
