BMC Access & Conservation Trust 

We are supporting the BMC's Access & Conservation Trust. The Trust funds vital projects that protect our crags and mountains. The charity promotes sustainable access to crags, mountains and open countryside through education and conservation projects across Great Britain. 

The BMC's Access & Conservation Trust is the BMC's registered charity, existing to make a difference to the mountains we love. ACT currently funds two fantastic campaigns - Mend Our Mountains and The Climate Project, both vitally important for hikers, mountaineers, climbers, the environment and the wild places we love to escape to. We donate to their general fund to allow more freedom to look after our wild places. 

 

ACT also funds a wide range of projects encompassing policy-related work, literature production and large-scale environmental projects. For example, by supporting practical site-based work (e.g. footpath construction, fencing, stiles, signs, ecological surveys) and rural development initiatives (e.g. projects to encourage climbers, hill walkers and mountaineers to contribute more to local economies in mountain areas). ACT funds sustainable transport initiatives and provides high quality access and conservation information to the public (e.g. good practice publications). 

All these projects are vitally important, incredibly effective, UK-based projects that protect our access to the outdoors and help to protect it for future generations. Thank you so much for your fundraising efforts and generous donations to Mend Our Mountains and The Climate Project through the BMC Access & Conservation Trust.
