How Helen and Chris turned a personal promise into a movement for biodiversity and belonging
When Helen and Chris Neave first stepped onto a tired Yorkshire field, they didn’t see what was there, they saw what could be. With no master plan, just love for the land and a will to restore, they began. That act of care sparked something bigger. Today, Make it Wild is a growing network of rewilding sites, inviting people and businesses to support nature in deeply personal ways. It’s not just restoration – it’s reconnection. “It’s not our aim to support nature,” Helen says. “It’s our purpose.” What began with trees now echoes as a movement. Quiet. Committed. Alive.
