Protecting nature doesn't end when the flames go out and our teams are already planning the long road to restoring this precious habitat.
As climate change and extreme weather puts more pressure on the places we all love, landscapes like this are becoming increasingly vulnerable.
This week, a wildfire has torn through Dunwich Heath in Suffolk, leaving the entire nature reserve devastated. An area of around 210 football pitches has been affected with rare habitats and wildlife lost in a matter of hours.
If you can, please support our appeal to help the recovery of Dunwich Heath. Your donation will help restore habitats, protect wildlife and build resilience for the future. Donate here: nationaltrust.org.uk/dunwich-heath-appeal
