We have a great range of projects doing really exciting, practical and inspirational things all over the UK. Your support can help ensure that these projects are even more successful. Many of these projects just require co-funding, meaning that a small donation can contribute to a really big impact.
There are lots of different things that you can do to help – please get in touch with Kathy if you are interested on 01733 602102 or kathy.wormald@froglife.org and have a look at the list below for ideas:
Project | What we’re planning to do | How you can help |
Toads on Roads | This project has been running for over 20 years, and we support a network of volunteers rescue thousands of Common Toads from roads every spring | We have had very little funding for this project, but aim to keep it going through small grants and donations. Sponsorship can help us improve our IT to make coordination of volunteer action smoother, enable us to get out and visit more groups on the ground and provide materials and other support for hard working Toad Patrollers |
Green Pathways | Our Children in Need funded project provides outdoor opportunities for vulnerable teenagers | Gail Lydall runs this fun and inclusive project, and really needs materials for art sessions, pond creation, habitat improvement, transport for young people and all sorts of other useful things |
Froglife Active Conservation Team | Our work with young offenders is on a contract with Peterborough City Council, and we take these often vulnerable young people to sites across the city to help with conservation work | The contract covers our office costs, but Stuart Park who runs the project is always on the lookout for tools, plants, bulbs, seeds, paint, wood and other materials. These are used for projects on our wildlife friendly allotment, community green spaces and school grounds |
Garden Wildlife Health | This important project gathers data from the public about dead or dying creatures in gardens. We act as a liaison between them and the Institute of Zoology to arrange analysis and research into threats to native wildlife | Our team are incredibly busy time in spring and summer, juggling Toads on Roads and handling calls about diseased and dead amphibians and reptiles. With your help we could do even more to help people at home get involved in saving their local wildlife. |
Froglife’s Publications | We have a twice-yearly newsletter and a range of colourful and informative booklets to help raise awareness about amphibians and reptiles. We want to keep printing and distributing these to inspire as many people as possible | You can advertise in our magazine, or even sponsor a whole edition. You can also sponsor print runs of booklets such as Just Add Water and Urban Tails to help us get the message out about how we can all help amphibians and reptiles |
