Embrace ‘No Mow May‘
Let your lawn grow this month to allow wildflowers like dandelions and daisies to flourish. These provide vital nectar for bees and butterflies. Even a small patch left unmown helps.

Add a Wildlife Pond
A small pond, even using an old bowl or container, creates a home for frogs, dragonflies, and birds. Include a shallow edge or ramp to help wildlife access the water safely.

Plant Native Wildflowers
Include UK native plants like knapweed, foxglove, and bellflower to attract pollinators. They’re well-suited to local conditions and support a wide variety of insects.

Avoid Chemicals
Ditch pesticides and herbicides. These can harm insects and disrupt your garden’s ecosystem. Use organic methods to keep it a safe haven for wildlife.

Create Shelter with Dead Wood
Leave piles of logs or twigs in a quiet corner. These provide cover and breeding ground for insects, amphibians, and small mammals.

Install Wildlife Homes
Put up bird boxes, bat boxes, and bug hotels. These offer vital nesting and shelter opportunities, increasing biodiversity in your garden.

Grow a Variety of Trees and Shrubs
Plant native trees and shrubs like hawthorn or rowan. They offer food and shelter for birds, insects, and other wildlife year-round.

Leave Seed Heads and Stems
Don’t tidy up too much! Seed heads and hollow stems offer food and winter shelter for birds and insects.

Create Hedgehog Highways
Cut a small 13cm x 13cm hole at the bottom of your garden fence to let hedgehogs roam freely. Connectivity between gardens is key to their survival.

Provide Fresh Water
Place shallow bowls of clean water in your garden for birds, bees, and mammals to drink and bathe in. Refresh daily to keep it safe.
