Defra's review of gamebird management could shape countryside policy for years to come.
We need your support to ensure decisions are guided by evidence, not assumption.
Your donation will help GWCT:
Early analysis suggests farms managed for gamebirds recorded 50% more songbirds than those without game management, highlighting the importance of building a stronger evidence base.
For 25 years, GWCT has combined independent science, long-term data and practical land-management expertise to inform policy and improve conservation.
The evidence will not speak for itself. Help us make sure it is heard.
