Welcome to our website

We are a local, independent charity dedicated to looking after some of Torbay's most important wildlife and heritage sites. Our aims are to protect land, conserve nature and strengthen the bonds between the people and the natural world of Torbay.

We manage 1750 acres of country parks, nature reserves, woodland, farmland and coastline in Torbay, including Berry Head National Nature Reserve, Cockington Country Park, Occombe Farm and the Seashore Centre as well as much of the English Riviera Geopark.
