Come and Bash Some Wildness

This picture illustrates perfectly that SWT despite having the word 'wildlife' in its name and talking about 'wild' have absolutely no idea what wild means. We see in the picture farm buildings and a fence and a style indicating a field with farm livestock.


If the kind of volunteering you are engaging young people in is focused around a farm then how ambitious is that as an example of wildness? Farms are businesses and no more wild than most back gardens. And volunteers helping to keep their area wild? A hundred to one that means the sort of work that destroys wildness they should be protecting.
