Pay with Exmoor Care

Small Acts, BIG Impact...

The 2026 summer pilot has now finished - keep your eyes peeled for future plans coming soon...

In the summer of 2026 we piloted a new approach to reward those who choose to make a positive impact while enjoying our National Park.

Thank you to everyone that took part, doing a good deed for Exmoor and helping leave it a better place.  You can watch a BBC News report on the scheme to learn more. We're evaluating the pilot and making plans for the future - come back soon for further details.
