Bumblebee Conservation Trust
@BumblebeeTrust
The Bumblebee Conservation Trust is the only charity dedicated wholly to saving the UK's bumblebees.
Schools across the UK have been getting creative to support our precious pollinators🌼🐝 These brilliant spaces are part of the Habitat Wing of our Bumblebee-friendly Schools Award, a nationwide initiative helping schools take action for bumblebees. Which area is your favourite?




We were @kentcountyshow last weekend & spoke to everyone all about bumblebees. We spoke to teachers, farmers, gardeners on how everyone can help bumblebees & other pollinators. Thanks to Simon from Kent Plan Bee and volunteers Debbie, Sujoy & Aydan for helping @BumblebeeTrust
