Supporting our supporters

After five years as the Membership Development Officer, Durham Wildlife Trust is pleased to announce that Emily Routledge has taken on a new role as Supporter Development Manager. Many of you will already know Emily and the great work she has been doing looking after our members and growing the Trust’s membership. Supporter Development Manager is a completely new role within the Trust, and will see Emily take on a broader role supported by a newly appointed administration apprentice, Megan Thornton. In the wider remit of this new position, Emily will continue to develop the Trust’s membership, while also recognising the essential role of volunteers at Durham Wildlife Trust. Emily will be improving the way the Trust looks after all its supporters, whether members, volunteers or donors, and there will be lots of work behind the scenes making sure that administration and communication is delivered to the highest standard. We want all members and volunteers to have the best possible experience when they choose to give the charity their support.

As ever, you can contact Emily with any queries about the support you give Durham Wildlife Trust on 0191 584 3112 or by emailing membership@durhamwt.co.uk

Gifts in wills are a wonderful way for your passion for wildlife to live on and ensure that future generations can enjoy the wild places you love. Having an up-to-date will is so important, giving you and your family peace of mind. If you don’t have a will, or need to make changes, we can help. Through a new partnership with EMG Solicitors, Durham Wildlife Trust members can access a discounted will writing service with a local solicitor.
