Celebrating Two Years of Impact with Invesco
In just two years, our partnership with Invesco has transformed ideas into action. From helping to create an innovative wetland mapping tool, and restoring wetlands at The Meads in Bridgwater, Invesco has played a leading role in the Blue Recovery Fund. Together, we’ve mobilised over 100 volunteers, and in 2024, built a thriving mini wetland at Invesco’s Henley-on-Thames HQ.
Mapping opportunities for large-scale wetland creation in the UK
Invesco is the largest contributor to the Blue Recovery Fund and a key member of the Blue Recovery Leaders Group, a group that brings businesses together with one shared vision, to create and restore wetlands for people and nature. Thanks to Invesco’s support for the Blue Recovery Fund, we’ve been able to launch the Wetland Potential Maps; a digital mapping tool that identifies where wetlands can provide the greatest benefit, overlaying open-source data on flood risk, water quality, and wellbeing. The tool helps policymakers, landowners, and other stakeholders to make informed decisions on where to create wetlands that deliver the greatest value for people and nature.
Invesco shares its skills and expertise to help unlock private investment into wetland creation, and collaborates with a broad range of stakeholders to make the goal of bigger, better wetlands in the UK a reality.
Since our partnership began two years ago, we’ve achieved some incredible milestones together:
- 100+ Invesco volunteers have committed full days to hands-on conservation, helping us to maintain our reserve at WWT London.
- In 2024, we created a mini wetland at Invesco’s head office in Henley-on-Thames. This project inspired our YouTube guide How to Build a Wildlife Pond, which has reached over 29,000 views and continues to grow (watch here).
- In summer 2025, we released a follow-up video, showcasing the thriving habitat the project has created (watch here).
Together, we’re proving that corporate partnerships can be a powerful force for environmental change. With Invesco’s support, the Blue Recovery Fund is not just restoring wetlands, it’s inspiring action across the UK.
