A countryside without wild flowers, fungi or other wild plants is unthinkable...
....and yet disturbingly many of our native species are losing ground to our modern ways of managing land and farming. The wildflower meadows of our grandparents generation are fast becoming a distant memory.
- 98% of the UK's flower-rich meadows have been destroyed since the 1930s.
- One in five wildflowers is threatened with extinction in the UK alone.
Help us reverse this trend.
Plantlife is making a concerted effort to improve the fortunes of our most vulnerable species and habitats. We work hard to protect wild plants on the ground and to build understanding of the vital role they play in everyone’s lives.
We carry out practical conservation work, manages nature reserves, influence policy and run events and activities that connect people with their floral heritage.
Help us 'speak up' for wild flowers, fungi and other plants. Please donate or become a member for as little as £2 a month at www.plantlife.org.uk.
Thank you.
