How to attract wildlife
Making small changes to your everyday life can make a huge difference to you and local wildlife. Let's get a little wilder. The total area of gardens is greater than the total of nature reserves. Small changes make a big difference collectively. The same principles can be applied to community spaces, businesses and school grounds.
Habitat creation is key
There are many small things you can to attract wildlife. whatever the size garden, community space or school ground. If you make space for nature, especially insects and bugs, then other species of wildlife will benefit. Wildlife needs breeding space, food, water and shelter.Â
Share what you do for nature to inspire and motivate others, plus link up activities to create green corridors.

Power to the pollinators!
Bees are amazing pollinators, so are moths, butterflies, flies and beetles. There are many easy things we can all do to help these creatures, who not only pollinate our food crops (every third bite in fact!) but they also ensure the survival of wildflowers, which supports other wildlife species.
Learn about actions you can take through Community Pollinator Fund examples and Team Wilder resources.
