what we do
our work
Our work is varied and extensive ranging from direct support for conservationists to involving the public and volunteers in practical action to help specific species and habitats.
- We are the lead partner for three Biodiversity Action Plans for stag beetles, noble chafer beetles and violet click beetles.
- We have a special focus on British mammals, and coordinate the National Dormouse Monitoring Programme. We run several nationwide public surveys to generate information about a range of native species.
- Each year we offer an exciting range of Wildlife Encounters so that our supporters and the general public can see wildlife up close and learn from the conservationists and scientists in the field.
- We own and manage two reserves.
- We have recently embarked on a couple of exciting projects to map the traditional orchards of England and reconnect dormouse populations through our Hedgerows for Dormice Project.
- We aim to educate and raise awareness for our work through our education and outreach services.
