We are in a climate and ecological emergency and need to take action. Flood and drought are having an increasing impact on our lives and the natural world. Wildlife has been pushed to its limits. Research shows that Britain has lost almost half its plant and animal species since the industrial revolution. Beavers, these industrious ‘ecosystem engineers’, create thriving habitats but they are only just returning after 400 years of extinction in Britain. They need our help to make a full return.

We are bringing beavers back to Britain for their ability to revive rivers and breathe life back into the land. Their dams stop water from rushing downstream. Instead, it soaks into the surrounding land, reducing the risk of drought later on. Water quality improves and new habitats appear. Numerous species of plants, insects, birds and fish start to thrive again. With your support beavers will return, regenerate our landscapes and give nature a fighting chance of bouncing back.
