The History of Rewilding
Thanks to players of The National Lottery, Clapham Film Unit has been awarded a grant from The National Lottery Heritage Fund, to record the history of Rewilding in England.
To get involved please contact claphamfilmunit@gmail.com
Project Description
We will be gathering oral histories from people who have been involved in rewilding and making a documentary.
The oral histories will be deposited with the National Life Stories Collection at the British Library. The documentary will be widely screened and broadcast. We are currently recruiting and training volunteers to take oral history recording roles in the project.
Please get in touch if you’d like to volunteer on the project or if you have experience of rewilding in England.
The project runs from April 2026 to November 2027.
