Providing food, shelter and safety 

To help pollinators we need to ensure that they have food, shelter and safety from chemicals. The actions suggested will provide this in your local community. The more of these actions you can take the better. 

Many pollinator friendly actions simply require us to manage the land in a different way than we have become used to. It is not about letting the landscape go wild, but about managing it in a more sustainable way so that pollinators can survive and continue to provide us with their vital service.

 We have suggested actions that are not costly and in some instances may lead to cost savings. Multiple actions are suggested so that you can consider your own local community and decide which actions would work best and at which location. In all cases, public health and safety should be the key consideration.


“Protect pollinators so that you can grow your own fruit and vegetables, shop for local produce and have flowers and wildlife in your local landscape”
