Safe Land for Bees aims to create awareness of the crisis for bees (both wild and honey bees) and the issues facing them, and to create a network of land where bees can live safely and thrive.
We also campaign for:
- The establishment of pesticide and herbicide free areas, and a government ban on neonicotinoids and pesticides.
- The maintenance and creation of areas which are wild and/ or with a range of habitats and plants suitable for bees.
- Robust regulation of mobile phone masts and other microwave radiation, and free public access to information about where the masts are.
- Education about, and the widespread adoption of, sustainable bee-keeping practises.
Things you can do:
You can help make any land you have, from a window box or garden to an allotment or farm, safe for bees by:
- Avoiding pesticides.
- Having a variety of bee friendly plants. For example, natives to the UK, wild flowers, single or open flowers, and a range of flowers throughout the year.
- Keeping some areas wild and having nesting areas.
- Where possible, minimising mobile phone use or keeping mobile phones switched off near bees.
