Pollinators with The Biodiversity Recording Company

Learn about how you can help and monitor pollinators in your garden and community greenspaces.

Pollination is essential for plant reproduction, allowing flowers to produce fruits, seeds, and new plants. It supports biodiversity by maintaining healthy ecosystems and providing food for wildlife and humans. Our pollinators face several threats, but our gardens and urban greenspaces can be important habitats for these vital insects.

We’ll hear from two pollinator specialists, that will explore how we can provide the right type of plants for pollinators in our gardens and undertake a simple survey to help monitor their populations. This will be followed by an opportunity to put your pollinator-related questions to our panel!

• Beginner’s Guide to Planting For Pollinators with Claire Pumfrey (Buglife)
• Monitoring Pollinators with FIT Counts with Dr Miranda Bane (UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology)

The 90-minute event will consist of two 30-minute presentations followed by a Q&A with the speakers using questions provided by the live audience. The presentation will be recorded and made available following the event to those who booked alongside a transcript of the Q&A and useful links.
