Fixing the Lake District Fells
The Lake District is perhaps Britain’s best-loved landscape. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site – a place worth protecting. But erosion from people, coupled with severe weather events and climate change, is causing ugly scars and environmental damage in the fragile mountains. Fix the Fells tackles this erosion problem by repairing and maintaining 330 upland paths, helping to keep the Lake District a special place for us and for future generations.
If you love the Lake District, please help us to Fix the Fells.
We rely on your generous donations.
Make a donation and be a part of the solution. 100% of your donation goes towards fixing the Lake District fells.
