Goals / remit
| Goals / remit of the organisation: |
The Bumblebee Conservation Trust is a UK-based national charity (No. 1115634) and a Company Limited by Guarantee (No. 05618710). The Trust was established in May 2006 in response to ongoing declines in many bumblebee species, due primarily to habitat loss through agricultural intensification. In the last 70 years two species have become nationally extinct whilst populations of several others have crashed dramatically. Over one third of social bumblebee species are now UK Biodiversity Action Plan priorities. Bumblebees are ‘keystone’ pollinators, integral to our natural environment, and providing significant economic benefits through pollination of crops. We aim to help bumblebees and the habitats that they depend on through conservation and education. Currently 87 pence of every pound we receive goes towards our conservation work.
