The Perfect Picnic
Can you think of anything more British than sitting in the sunshine (or clouds for that matter) and enjoying a glass of Pimms, alongside a finger sandwich and a cocktails sausage? Us Brits are known for our love of sitting on the classic striped blanket come rain or shine and our little Island offers plenty […]

Gift to Nature is changing and growing into something new, bigger and better. In February 2016 the Island 2000 Trust charity took on the management of most of the Isle of Wight Council’s countryside estate, to add to its own existing Gift to Nature sites. This new project is run under the name of Gift to Nature – meaning that both IWC countryside and G2N will be better placed to keep our beautiful countryside open and free for all.
