If you think you have bats in your property and you need to carry out works or you think a building you will be working on has bats, then it’s important to take them into account from the earliest stages of planning work. Check this page for more info: buff.ly/3YjIdqD

#NationalTreeWeek starts today! Most UK bat species evolved to use trees as roosts, while many also forage in woodland. In addition, trees provide excellent commuting habitats.
