Support our cause
Donate to the Cerne Abbas Nature Appeal
We've looked after the Cerne Abbas Giant and the small plot of land he calls home since 1920. Now, we're committed to buying and caring for the land surrounding the Giant. With your support, we can transform it into a super site for nature. Please donate to the appeal or enter the prize draw, so together, we can help restore the land, habitats and species that live there.
