Nature is our greatest asset
We treat it as precious, valuable and essential. In a world that runs on money, we help nature thrive.
Turning ideas into real outcomes
We unlock buyers, funding, clarity and momentum. By connecting stakeholders across the entire landscape, we move nature projects from concept to delivery.
Moving beyond design to delivery
We provide the commercial framework that ensures every project has the momentum and funding to not only get off the ground, but to reach maturity.
Spirited, restless, and driven by possibility.
We make complexity clear, translating the system simply to give our partners the confidence to act.
Dave Caygill
Director & Co-Founder
Dave co-founded Wild Natured in 2023, leading the development of nature-based infrastructure and blended finance models that connect environmental resilience with commercial delivery.
He specialises in translating complex environmental challenges into investable, cross-sector partnerships that align public policy, private finance and place-based resilience.
Dave is co-director of the FloodAction Coalition and is a trustee of the Ecosystems Knowledge Network. He is also a UK Design Council Expert and a Cannes Lions Innovation Award winner.
His one Wild Nature: It’s all about the apples. Growing them, harvesting them, pressing them by foot and turning them into possibly the best cider out there.
Rachel Morgan
Director & Co-Founder
Rachel co-founded Wild Natured alongside Dave, and leads natural capital project development across water resilience and biodiversity net gain, working with infrastructure, public, and private sector clients including Network Rail, Defra, and Wildfarmed.
Previously, Rachel led multi-million-pound renewable investment cases across solar PV and hydrogen, building a strong track record in infrastructure investment and the development of emerging asset classes.
Rachel also leads delivery of the FloodAction Coalition Project Accelerator – a cross-sector initiative bringing together insurers, infrastructure operators, land managers, government and finance to unlock investment into natural flood management.
Her one Wild Nature: Hiking is my first love. This year I’ve climbed Mount Kenya and walked the Camino de Santiago in Portugal. To witness the awe of nature and to be reminded of how small we are is a great leveller.
Kate Terriere
Senior Programme Manager
Kate is a nature and sustainability strategist with more than 25 years of experience designing multi‑million pound programmes that integrate natural capital, climate resilience and inclusive growth. She is known for translating complex challenges into clear plans and delivering commercial, environmental and social value with integrity and purpose.

Her one Wild Nature: I feel most alive in nature and among wildlife, and I’m deeply passionate about protecting and restoring the natural world - especially the African savannah, whose vast beauty and wild spirit nourish and feed my soul.
Archie Ward
Natural Capital Project Consultant

At Wild Natured he manages our project pipeline, and works closely with project developers and land managers to unlock investable opportunities across landscapes.
His one Wild Nature: For me, it’s all about the lightning thread – the hidden connection that runs through nature. The same instinct that drives a salmon home is what drives me to protect and restore the wild places that shape us.
