In recent years, British wildlife has been in decline. The 2020 WWF: State of Nature report showed a 68% decline in worldwide population sizes of mammals, birds, amphibians, reptiles, and fish between 1970 and 2016. Over the last half-century, a combination of urbanisation, agriculture, climate change, and pollution has caused the animal levels to decrease, something that continued despite efforts to prevent and reverse losses.

Winter is an important time for wildlife- for many it is the last stretch before mating season in the spring.

Bees are some of the most important and overlooked animals we have. Through pollination of crops alone, they add approximately £600 million per year to the value of UK crops through increased yield and quality. In the UK, bees are the largest contributor to pollination; recent studies suggest that about one-third of pollination is delivered by honeybees. Bees contribute to our quality of living, signal the health of local ecosystems, are key to the preservation of biodiversity.
In today’s world, most of us are guilty of spending a bit too much time staring at our phones. Whether it’s a random Facebook notification, an email off work, or yet another message on that WhatsApp group chat, it’s easy to get caught in an endless loop of scrolling and refreshing. This is a habit many of us have fallen into – it’s emerged that the average British person now spends 6 hours a day looking at screens, and we interact with and touch our phones over 2600 times in that same period.
