How WildE3 in Tower Hamlets Is Rewilding Urban Life - and What It Means for Cities Everywhere Cities and nature are often framed as opposites - concrete versus wilderness - but in Tower Hamlets, east London, they’re proving to be powerful partners in the fight for biodiversity and climate resilience. A recent initiative called WildE3 […]
Twenty years ago, Knepp was struggling farmland on heavy Sussex clay. Today, it is one of the most significant (and famous!) biodiversity hotspots in the UK. That transformation didn’t come from intensifying control. It came from relinquishing it. By allowing natural processes to return - thorny scrub to spread, deadwood to remain, grazing animals to […]
Last week, the BBC revealed the Denton Universal Award - the largest single source of public art funding in the UK. Its ambition is beautifully simple and quietly radical: to fund free, accessible works that anyone can experience. No tickets. No barriers. No velvet ropes. The first recipient is Andy Goldsworthy , awarded £200,000 to […]

Someone else to go first. But here’s the thing: rewilding doesn’t wait for perfection. Small, imperfect, local actions still count Every rewilding project starts imperfectly. There’s always uncertainty. […]
A LettsSafari preview of our definitive ecotone guide coming next week - the simple “soft transitions” method that makes small spaces richer, wilder, and more alive. Most gardens are designed like spreadsheets: lawn here, border there, fence at the back, patio at the front, neat boxes with hard edges. But nature doesn’t work like that. […]
Most cities weren’t designed with wildlife in mind. They were designed for speed, density, efficiency. And yet nature keeps turning up anyway. In cracks > on rooftops > along forgotten edges. Running rewilding projects in Devon has taught us something important: nature doesn’t need an invitation written in planning permission language. It just needs opportunity. Our […]
