The BSBI looks forward in its planning; undertaking multi-year recording projects and looking to continue to support botanists and botanical activity across Britain and Ireland.
Making a monthly or an annual donation to our work allows us to plan for the future with confidence, and allows you to more easily spread your support to achieve a more consistent impact.
Be part of our long-term work
Some examples of our long-term programmes include:
- Outreach and Engagement: aiming to widen our community of botanists and ensure our events and communications meet the needs of all those who are wanting to increase their understanding of wild plants
- Science and Data: making sure the records submitted to us are used to provide high quality, impartial data and interpretation for research and to support nature recovery
- Support for Recorders: ensuring our botanical recorders have the equipment, support and digital tools needed to contribute to our world-class database
- Training: delivering opportunities for learning and participation for people of all skill levels, from beginner to expert, to sustain and develop the skill base
Unrestricted donations offer BSBI the best opportunity to respond to current needs, however if you would like to support a particular aspect of our work in Britain and Ireland, you can do so from the donation form. You can also support our work on a country basis.
