It was a privilege to stand up for bumblebees outside @parliament.scot today 🐝

Big thanks to everyone who joined to show Scotland’s decision-makers how much nature matters. Let’s hope they heard us!

Last night we joined @parliament.scot to celebrate 100+ MSP Nature Champions who speak up for Scotland’s species & habitats 👏

We shared our #BumblebeeManifesto and congratulated Bilberry bumblebee champion Graham Simpson MSP on winning the Muddy Boots award for his hands-on dedication! 🥾

Delighted to host Scottish @NatureChampions MSPs at #UofStirling on Friday to mark #WorldBeeDay 🌍🐝

We went on a wild bee safari, explored cutting-edge bumblebee research, and discussed our #BumblebeeManifesto - a call to action for policymakers to help wild bees thrive.
