Last week, lots of advocates from across the environmental sector who believe in and fight for Ancient Woodland rights came to advise the Ancient Woodlands UK team on our declaration and bill that are in the works ✍

As a campaign, we believe that ancient woodlands deserve full legal protection and it is of utmost importance to protect our natural heritage. 🌳

It was brilliant to see and hear the passion in the room and I cannot thank the guests enough for giving us their time and thoughts. Also just a little boast about the amazing team I am part of, I’m just so proud of how far it has developed since started this campaign a year ago. Love you guys loads 💓

Meet the White Stork, graceful, long-legged birds who are also incredible travelers! 🕊️

Did you know their migratory habit likely contributed to the ancient myth that storks deliver babies? 👶

The white stork embarks on epic migrations, crossing continents and even flying over the Himalayas! In ancient Pagan traditions, couples often wed on the Summer Solstice whilst storks commenced their migration to Africa. Nine months later, during breeding season, storks returned to northern Europe just as the newlyweds welcomed their honeymoon babies 🤰
