Have you written your letter to Santa...oops, I mean... to the future yet?
Whether your family have been naughty or nice this year, treat them to the best gift you could ever give – a future enriched with a healthy, jolly natural environment. You can help now by signing our Letter to the Future.
Almost 335,000 people have signed the letter calling on the UK Government to invest in a healthy environment for our future generations.
With the spending review back in October giving the Higher Level Scheme (a scheme that rewards farmers for being wildlife friendly) an 83% increase, this was something to celebrate and showed just how much nature’s voice is being heard.
But of course, it wasn't all great news and cuts are now starting to filter down locally, skimping on environment work (and staff). With the localism agenda coming about, the loss of knowledge and expertise in this area could be disastrous.
In the New Year, innovative ways the Government could fund the natural environment will be in the spotlight and we’ll be making sure that birds and wildlife are considered once again during the budget in March.
That’s why we need you to act now to ensure the wonderful wildlife of Christmas future isn’t poles apart from Christmas past and present. If you haven’t signed yet, see below for some top ways to support our campaign:
