Conservation Covenants Conservation organisations

Why might you use a Conservation Covenant as a Wildlife Trust or other conservation organisation?

For conservation organisations, Conservation Covenants enable scalable land protection without ownership requirements. 

Key benefits: 

• Secure long-term habitat management without land acquisition  
• Focus capital on restoration and delivery rather than purchase  
• Formalise land management agreements with legal permanence  
• Support partnership delivery models across multiple landowners  
• Enable hybrid delivery models (management + covenant oversight)  

 
As part of the wider Wildlife Trust group, we combine ecological credibility with legal Responsible Body capability, enabling trusted conservation delivery at scale.
