indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."

GREEN MATCH FUND 2023
The 20-27th April 2023 saw the Green Match Fund 202when donations made to 178 participating charities were doubled.  Some are protecting specific animals such as dormice or otters, whilst others are focusing on habitats such as hedgerows or seagrass. Some are based in the UK but help wildlife overseas.  The event raised over £4,349,330  for the participating charities through 22,457 donations!  This well exceeded the previous year's event (£2.8 million).  Well done everyone!

The People’s Trust for Endangered Species (PTES) says that the biggest challenge for wild animals today is finding safe places to live.

  • Cities are expanding
  • Farming is intensifying
  • Green spaces are rapidly disappearing

And so animals have fewer places to live. 

However, gardens have an important top play in providing havens for wildlife – in giving them food and shelter. 

The more wildlife friendly we can make our gardens, the better a chance wildlife will have.

There’s plenty we can all do to help, such as making a feeding station for hedgehogs – we’ve put a hedgehog hotel in our garden.  You can build a small pond for amphibians, or create a log pile for insects.  Pretty much all the flowers in our garden are wildlife friendly and it gives us huge pleasure to watch the wildlife enjoying them. 

Make your garden wildlife friendly

It’s easy to do.
