Project/Applicant Name: Buglife - Urban Buzz
County: Across the UK
Grant Received: £1,000,000
Urban Buzz is a project run by Buglife – The Invertebrate Conservation Trust, using innovation to improve eight cities across English and Wales for pollinators. With UK pollinators in massive decline, techniques in the eight “buzzing cities” will create a total of 200 hectares of new pollinator habitat, and engage 80,000 people with the plight of our pollinators.
Over three years, Biffa Award is awarding just over £1 million to the Urban Buzz project, to support their delivery of the scheme in Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, Ipswich, Leeds, Leicester, Plymouth and York.
If you live in one of those cities, look out for the Urban Buzz project near you, and keep an eye out for our precious pollinators.
