Why your donation matters
In 2011 the number of suspected bat crimes reported to us has risen. The Bat Helpline has answered substantially more queries and concerns than ever before. We have seen campaigns against bats and the legislation protecting them. And bats are once again being portrayed as pests: unwanted in the home; causing untold damage and havoc.
Several news outlets, ran articles where anti-bat attitudes, riddled with the repetition of clichés and myths dominated the column inches, while hardly a reference to the excellent support available is seen.
We need your help to speak up for bats, combat negative attitudes, and tackle the media on irresponsible actions.
You can help us change attitudes and inspire understanding and appreciation by making a donation today.
