Supporting the Lake District Foundation

In Partnership with Mountain Goat and Windermere Tourist Information Centre

At Windermere Tourist Information Centre, we’re proud to support the Lake District Foundation, a charitable organisation dedicated to preserving the Lake District’s unique landscapes, heritage, and communities.

As part of our ongoing commitment to sustainable tourism and local conservation, we’ve partnered with Mountain Goat, the Lake District’s leading sightseeing and tour operator, to help raise awareness and vital funds for this important cause.

How You Can Help

Visitors can support the Lakes Foundation in a number of simple ways:

    • Donate at the Tourist Information Centre: Drop in and speak to one of our friendly team members to find out more about the foundation’s work. Donation points are available at the centre, and every contribution, large or small, makes a difference.

    • Add a Donation When Booking a Tour: If you’re booking a tour with Mountain Goat online, you’ll have the option to add a voluntary donation to support the Lakes Foundation directly as part of your booking.

    • Learn More: We provide leaflets and displays in the Tourist Information Centre with information about the Lakes Foundation’s projects, including conservation efforts, footpath repairs, local community support, and environmental education initiatives.

Why It Matters

The Lake District is one of the UK’s most cherished national parks, attracting millions of visitors each year. The Lakes Foundation works tirelessly to ensure that tourism has a positive and lasting impact on the region, supporting projects that protect the environment and preserve the area for future generations to enjoy.

By donating, you are directly contributing to the continued beauty, wellbeing, and sustainability of this stunning place we all love.
