HEADTURNED Foundation.
A 5,000-acre blueprint: Innovation Hub, Vertical Farming, and Wildlife Sanctuary, all working together to reconnect humanity with nature.
Reconnecting humanity with nature
One blueprint. Three core projects. Infinite ways to help.
Science & Technology
Innovation Hub
The epicentre of the HEADTURNED blueprint. It supports the Sanctuary, Vertical Farming, media, packaging, water systems, energy, and education. If you trace the systems behind a project, you eventually arrive here.
Future of Food
Vertical Farming Campus
Year-round, pesticide-free food grown close to where people live; with packaging and pricing that makes healthy choices the easy default, not a luxury.
Domestic Farm & Wildlife
Sanctuary for all Species
A sanctuary landscape for injured and displaced animals; providing long-term care, habitat restoration, quiet spaces for rehabilitation, fostering and adoption.
Seize the opportunity
Sponsorship & Impact
HEADTURNED is more than a brand; it's two real platforms built to transform animal welfare, restore ecosystems, and inspire the next generation.
Nature Media & Creators
Foundation Media & HEADTURNED PPV
We're inviting early Nature Content Creators to help document success stories, conservation work, and everyday moments in nature.

A Personal Journey into HEADTURNED
How a lifetime of experiences, failures, and second chances led to the HEADTURNED Foundation – and why we’re building work that doesn’t beg for permission.
Education & Talent
Learning, Skills & Careers
Training, apprenticeships, internships and real-world R&D roles – building the skills needed for tomorrow’s ecological and technological challenges.
Biodiversity
Projects and solutions working as one living system.
Sustainability
Vertical farming as a closed-loop food system
Layered growing systems, climate-controlled environments, and biodegradable packaging designed to prove that food security and biodiversity can coexist.
Environmental Change
Renewable energy and climate-tech R&D
From solar and wind integration to HVAC, water desalination, and storage—every kilowatt is designed to serve land, animals, and community first.
Conservation
Conservation, biodiversity and rewilding corridors
Wildlife hospital, long-term care, and restored habitats—linked by safe corridors, ponds, and woodland to rebuild resilient ecosystems.
Agrotech and Sensing
Electronics, robotics and drones
Field-ready electronics, robotics, and drones enabling precise monitoring, efficient interventions, and better decisions; all grounded in the wellbeing of animals, land, and communities.
Nature Content Creators
Help us tell the story of nature and restoration.
We're looking for early creators who can share powerful images, short videos, and written reflections on nature, conservation, and recovery. We'll curate these into articles and features on the HEADTURNED Foundation site and our Media page.
I share the small wins and everyday encounters with nature to show people it exists.
David Hodgkinson
Doorstep Wildlife & Habitat
From local clean-ups to restoration projects, I document the people and places behind real change.
Field Storyteller
Conservation & Community Stories
Quick, honest clips from the field – the kind of content that helps the Foundation tell a global story.
Citizen Filmmaker
Short-form Nature Video
I focus on before-and-after stories that prove degraded land can come back to life.
Landscape Creator
Rewilding & Recovering Sites
As the Foundation grows, long-term contributors will be invited into sponsored roles and deeper collaborations.
Future Sponsored Media Partner
HEADTURNED Foundation Media (coming soon)
In time, the Foundation will build its own in-house media team to follow projects on the 5,000-acre site and beyond.
Future In-House Media Team
Foundation Film & Photo Crew (planned)
As the Foundation grows, we'll be able to offer sponsorships for ongoing contributors and build an in-house media team to follow projects on the ground.
