We work with partners such as Forestry Commission, South West Tourism, County Sports Partnerships and sports bodies to deliver new projects in the areas of leisure activities and conservation.

A few projects are supported outright by South West Lakes Trust as a charity, but in most cases we seek additional, outside funding or support from volunteers for projects meeting our charitable objectives.

Examples of current and recent projects

• Wimbleball Activity hub, a new Watersports centre for Exmoor
• Waves project, an initiative getting more young people into watersports
• All-ability fishing boats at Siblyback and Stithians
• Discover Wistlandpound, a partnership project giving disabled access around the lake
• Two Community Sports Coaches, getting more young people on the water and active
• Conservation projects, such as Dormouse Monitoring
