Nature Counts

24 September 2025

Nature Counts is a North Wales Wildlife Trust project which aims to encourage more people to get involved in recording wildlife on our Nature Reserves.

The project has been made possible with The National Lottery Heritage Fund, with thanks to National Lottery players.

Why do we want to record the wildlife on our reserves?

By knowing what wildlife we have on our reserves, we can better understand the habitats and how best to manage them. But this is a big task and we need your help to achieve it.

North Wales Wildlife Trust manages 35 nature reserves across North Wales. These nature reserves are made up of a variety of habitats and are home to thousands of different plants and animals.

How can you help or get involved?

Lots of people visit our reserves, for various reasons. We're asking that whilst you're there, make a record of what plants and animals you see during your visit. Log in to Cofnod's easy to use Online Recording System (ORS) to submit your records, either using a Smartphone in the field (you just need some internet coverage) or when you get home. Your records will be available to NWWT together with other records held by Cofnod for our reserves and you will make a direct contribution to our knowledge of the site.
