| RSPB Gift Membership The perfect gift for bird lovers & nature lovers |
 |
|
The RSPB speaks out for birds and wildlife, tackling the problems that threaten our environment. It is the largest wildlife conservation organisation in Europe with over one million members.
Wildlife and the environment face many threats. The RSPB's work is focussed on the species and habitats that are in the greatest danger. Its work is driven by the passionate belief that: - birds and wildlife enrich people's lives; the health of bird populations is indicative of the health of the planet, on which the future of the human race depends; we all have a responsibility to protect wildlife.

What sorts of membership are available?
Family memberships & child gift memberships are also available - get them started on wildlife from a young age! If you join as a family, you'll receive the new "RSPB Wild families" welcome pack with "Things to do" and "Places to go" booklets to help you all enjoy nature together. Wildlife Explorer membership covers all age groups, with gifts suitable for different ages. There are gifts and regular magazines for each child packed with wildlife stories, pictures, competitions, activities and much more. Inspire them to care and get involved. What about cost?
Well, this is where I think the RSPB has been very innovative You can pay from just over £3 a month up, depending on what you want to donate - £3 is the minimum. £3 will help plant 12 native trees; £5 could provide a field teacher to give school-children a wild day with nature; and so on. For every £1 you give, 90p goes directly towards current & future conservation projects.
What does the RSPB do?
Among the RSPB's activities are the Big Garden Watch, held every year in January. Anyone can join in, and all you have to do is to sit for an hour, note the different types of birds in your garden or local park & then report them back to the RSPB, to help them assess bird populations. Another activity is the Big School Birdwatch, which encourages children to get to know more about nature, wildilfe & birds in particular. This has been spectacularly successful. The RSPB is also involved overseas in projects with other organisations such as BirdLife International & Burung Indonesia to help the Sumatran Tiger, whose home is under threat - it is seeking to plant 1 million trees to resurrect the Harapan Rainforest.
