Saving the small things that run the planet
Spring is Sprung
The first in a series of blogs celebrating the seasonality of our gardens. Explore some of the seasonal jobs you could now make a start on, to encourage invertebrates and other wildlife into your green spaces, and some of the important things to consider when planning your gardening activities.
The Bristol Declaration
We, supported by organisations, institutions, and community representatives, have issued a united Declaration on UK Insect Declines, calling for urgent, coordinated action to address the steep and ongoing losses in the UK’s insect populations.
Adopt a Bug!
We are delighted to launch our Bug E-Adoptions – available to purchase for yourself or as a gift to the bug enthusiast in your life from just £15. Adopt your bug here!
Save Arena Essex
Another important site for invertebrates is under threat from development. Arena Essex is home to hundreds of invertebrate species as well as rare plants and birds. Join us in telling Google to search elsewhere!
Support Curtains for Light Pollution
Show your support to Nurture the Night Shift, pledge to close your curtains and blinds when you turn on your indoor lights, to keep the light inside and say Curtains for Light Pollution!
B-Lines
Imagine trying to travel around Britain without our road and rail network. Or imagine if nine out of every ten miles of road just didn’t exist – life would be impossible!
Important Invertebrate Areas
Explore Important Invertebrate Areas (IIAs) and a fantastic suite of free to use information and web resources to help secure a better future of our invertebrate populations! Find out more…
Don't Neglect the Night
Join Buglife in calling on governments to stop neglecting the night and embed the nocturnal environment in conservation plans.
50% of the time it is night, yet nearly no plans to protect nature recognise the nocturnal environment.
