The results of the Big Butterfly Count have shown it's been an average year for butterflies, and with many species in long-term decline, it's going to take more than a sunny spell to turn things around 🦋📉

However, there is a simple way you can take action to help butterflies recover.

By signing our open letter to UK retailers, together we can create a healthier environment for butterflies by asking them to remove synthetic pesticides from sale 👇
