The Wildlife Trusts are a UK network of Local Wildlife Trusts, usually based on single or adjacent counties, or in the case of Scotland, a whole country.
These obviously vary from trust to trust, but you can be sure that they will include a system of WATCH groups (wildlife-based activity clubs for children); some links with County biological recording networks; contacts for wildlife enthusiast groups such as badger groups, bat groups and other local organisations and individuals.
The Wildlife Trusts is also known as the The Royal Society of Wildlife Trusts, and formerly the Royal Society of Nature Conservation, although this name is not now normally used.
