If you would like to donate a lot for our 2023 auction, or if you are not a member and would like a catalogue by email or post, please email Christina: office@wildtrout.org
The auction enables us to continue to work for the conservation of native, wild brown trout.
What we do also benefits a myriad of plants and animals living in and by the river.
The funds we raise are important in getting projects off the ground and crucially, are increasingly used to leverage more funds from other sources.
They also help keep our hard-working team of Conservation Officers equipped with tools like chainsaws and waders for them and for the volunteers we help.
