Story
Bats are one of the most misunderstood animals, not just in the UK, but across the world. The many myths and misconceptions surrounding bats leaves some fearing these fascinating mammals and poses a challenge for our local bat populations. At Bat Conservation Trust, we aim to promote an accurate and positive image of bats and the important services they provide in our ecosystems.
We often see bats in the spotlight during Halloween, despite being less active at this time of year. This Halloween, we want to take the opportunity to celebrate bats in the positive light that they deserve and were inviting you to celebrate with us. We have put together a whole Halloween pack, full of batty information and celebration ideas. Whether you choose to have cosy night in with a spooky movie stream-a-thon or a Halloween party with batty games and activities, theres something for all of us! Download our free Halloween pack here and join us in celebrating bats.
Bats need our help more than ever. The funds raised will help us develop training and education opportunities, support local bat groups with their vital front-line conservation efforts, give advice, reassurance, and accurate information to the public, promote the understanding of bats, research and monitor our UK bat populations, and to campaign for continued protection of bats throughout the UK. Your support makes a real difference to what were able to achieve and we hope you will join us this Halloween to celebrate bats and dispel myths.
