In 2019, the National Lottery Heritage Fund invested over £4 million in the Trust’s vision to create 1,000 acres of wildness, match-funded by Suffolk Wildlife Trust donors and supporters.

Cowper Griffith Architects were appointed by the client to develop proposals for high quality flagship visitor facilities in the unique Broadland landscape to replace the existing outmoded facilities. Community engagement, inclusive access, and low energy were very important components of the design of the Centre.

The new Carlton Marshes visitor centre is a flagship building for the Trust that will have a dual role being both a visitor gateway and an education centre, a space to encourage more people to learn about the Broads unique landscape and wildlife.
