We are celebrating our marriage on the first and a fair few of you have been asked to help us celebrate it . As we have been together a very long time we don’t need anything but if you feel you did want to give us something this would be lovely as we especially like to help hedgehogs and we also like to help out watchet hedgehogs who always need money as they do an amazing job but sadly not a charity , thank you in advance Debbie and Richard xx

Almost two thirds of UK species have declined in the past 50 years and one in ten faces the risk of extinction. Globally, it's estimated that between 10,000 and 100,000 species are becoming extinct every year. There's nothing natural or inevitable about the alarming rate at which we are losing animals and their living landscapes. It is absolutely avoidable.

PTES is an international conservation charity, working to protect animals and their habitats. We're passionate about protecting animals facing extinction in vulnerable habitats, but we also know that passion isnt enough: successful conservation is based on sound scientific evidence.

For over 40 years our ground-breaking research has resulted in practical conservation action across the world, targeted where it is most needed and where it will have maximum impact.

Your support will make a real difference, helping us save and protect some of our most threatened species.
