Mission Plantlife seeks to conserve wild plants and

fungi using a range of approaches. We

work to conserve key habitats and we

have designated Important Plant Areas to

draw attention to those parts of the

country that sustain important collections

of plants. We also devise and carry out

projects aimed at recovering declining

populations of key species and

demonstrating how they can be effectively

conserved in the future.

Buglife is the only organisation in Europe devoted to

the conservation of all invertebrates, and we are

passionately committed to saving Britain's rarest little

animals, everything from bees to beetles, and spiders

to snails

Pond Conservation is the national charity dedicated to

protecting the wildlife of our freshwaters: ponds,

rivers, streams and lakes.

We give advice, carry out research, promote practical

action and lobby policy makers to ensure that

freshwater wildlife and habitats have a secure future.
