What we do

The RSPB speaks out for birds and wildlife, tackling the problems that threaten our environment. With the support of our members, we:

  • campaign on behalf of birds and the environment
  • own and manage nature reserves where wildlife can flourish and people can get closer to nature
  • research the problems facing birds and the environment.
  • carry out recovery projects for many threatened species.
  • help everybody enjoy the natural world and learn more about it

How much is membership?

Adults and families

You can now choose how much to give each month. To give you an idea:

  • £3 helps plant 12 native trees
  • £5 could provide a field teacher to give schoolkids a wild day with nature
  • £7 helps create 1002m of precious heathland

The more you can give, the more we can do for nature & the environment.
