Bumblebees are in crisis. Every pound you give helps to secure their future, now and for the next generation.

 

 

Bumblebees need us year-round. Make the biggest impact when you give a regular monthly donation.

How your regular gift helps bumblebees

Helping bumblebees doesn’t stop when summer ends. All year round, we’re researching bumblebee populations, developing conservation expertise, influencing policy and inspiring people to protect and provide for bumblebees.

When you choose to give monthly, your regular gift helps provide the reliable funding we need to keep this vital work going, month after month.

Your regular gift could help us to:

  • Monitor rare bumblebee populations across the UK, helping us to understand where action is needed most
  • Research the threats facing bumblebees, such as climate change, habitat loss and changing land use
  • Inspire people to protect bumblebees through creating resources for schools, communities and landowners
  • Plan for the future by helping to identify and protect the places bumblebees need to thrive.

Our work never stops. Join our community of monthly givers and help provide regular support to help us plan ahead and continue our conservation work throughout the year.
