The main focus of our work currently centres on the lesser and greater horseshoe bats, Bechstein’s bats and Barbastelle.

Over many years, we have developed a great deal of expertise and experience associated with the practical conservation issues concerning these species, and we are happy to share this knowledge with conservationists, developers, planners and the public alike.

If you want to know more about these species or the practicalities of our species conservation projects, please refer in the first instance to the species information and to the free resources in Publications on this website. Should your information needs not be covered by our published information, we can provide initial consultations depending on the enquiry.

Those enquiries that can be dealt with quickly over the phone or by email will be provided free of charge, but if more detailed information, data or a site visit is required, a fee will be requested as a contribution towards our costs. We also undertake commissions and contracts for specific surveys, projects and reports. Costs upon application.

Geographically, our main focus of interest is in Wales, the west coast of Ireland, and the south-west of England. Details of the offices and staff based in these areas are on the Our Staff page.

For all other enquiries relating to the rescue or finding of individual bats, please visit Bat Conservation Trust and for other mammal species, please visit The Mammal Society.
