Who we are
The Vincent Wildlife Trust is an independently funded charity that has been at the forefront of wildlife conservation for over 35 years. We are not campaigners or lobbyists; our specific niche is as an organisation that carries out pioneering research, undertakes surveys to assess how well our mammals are doing and offers expert advice to others through practical demonstration.
