Butterfly Conservation Warwickshire works with land owners, local authorities, conservation bodies, businesses and local people to raise awareness about the threats to our butterflies, moths and their habitats. We provide advice and practical help on how to protect these and our other threatened wildlife in the region.
Several butterflies in the region such as the Small Blue, Wood White and Wall Brown are particularly vulnerable due to habitat loss and population fragmentation resulting in small isolated colonies which become increasingly susceptible to local or regional extinction. Other species such as the Duke of Burgundy are already extinct in the region, last seen in 1987.
We have over 200 members, an active Committee and regular events such as field trips, habitat management work parties and much more throughout the year. You could become a member of Butterfly Conservation and help protect butterflies and moths in Warwickshire and beyond.
