| What We Do | | Biodiversity |

Somerset is home to a staggering variety of plants and animals. This variety of wildlife is what we mean when we talk about biodiversity. Somerset is the only place in the UK where you’ll find the Cheddar Pink flower and other rare and threatened species in the county including the Wood White butterfly and Greater Horseshoe Bat. The Somerset Biodiversity Partnership is working to protect our unique wildlife. To find out more, click here.
One of the ways the Partnership is doing this is by adopting Biodiversity Action Plans. Recently, a ten year Somerset Biodiversity Strategy for the whole County and Local Biodiversity Action Plans for all five districts were adopted. There are also14 habitats and seven species with their own Action Plans. To access the BAPs, click here
To reverse the loss of wildlife habitats and species in Somerset, we need everyone’s help. You can get involved by volunteering your time on conservation projects, wildlife surveys or finding out more at a walk or talk. To see more, click here
