2% For Nature helps protect and enhance the landscape, wildlife and habitats across the Hatfield Park Estate, creating a more abundant natural environment for visitors.
We set aside 2% of every general admission ticket to fund work that supports nature and species diversity across the Estate.
Every ticket purchase helps support practical initiatives, including meadow restoration, tree planting, and habitat improvement. For visitors, this means richer seasonal landscapes, more opportunities to spot wildlife, and a park environment that feels increasingly varied and alive with nature.
We’ll share updates as the programme develops, so you can see the positive impact of your visit.
