My Original Art Silent Online Auction in support of
Derbyshire Wildlife Trust at
Willington Wetlands Reserve
Meet Jules Chabeaux in this short video to hear how Bid For Beavers came about.
Imagine how proud you'll feel knowing you've directly helped the Beavers at Willington Wetlands Reserve through your successful bid for my "Heart Shaped Beaver" fine art original. I'm sure you pride yourself in doing all you can to protect wildlife and nature and this is a great way to both give and receive! You can take your time finding the perfect place to hang him in your home and can fondly share your story with your family and friends, as they enjoy viewing him too. It's such a good feeling to know that you're doing something tangible to protect Britain's precious wildlife and nature in these difficult times, isn't it?
Or maybe you know a special someone who would be "tickled pink" to receive this unique piece of fine art as a gift, to show them how much you care. Perhaps also giving them a beautiful hand written card explaining how their gift has helped to bring much needed funding for the Derbyshire Wildlife Trust's (DWT) vital work, I bet it will bring an even bigger smile to their face...
The Heart Shaped Beaver - Original Fine Art
You may be aware that Beavers had been extinct in Derbyshire for 800 years before the DWT reintroduced them in September 2021. It was such an important step and last year the bonded pair have been busily raising 2 kits as well!
Their impact on the Wetlands has already been significant, helping many other threatened species to find safe haven and to thrive there. They brilliantly manage the flow in the brook, slowing down peak flows and also preventing it from running completely dry during droughts.
Bringing "The Heart Shaped Beaver" into your home or that of a loved ones will usher in that wonderful energy of cooperation for the common good, what could be better?
I will be donating 40% of the winning bid specifically to the Willington Wetlands Reserve to support the Trust's important work and YOU could be the one who enables this to happen! Read the simple steps below to place your Bid For Beavers now.
