Ecologists keeping the region red

Red Squirrels Northern England (RSNE) has received yet another cash boost towards its red squirrel conservation work from Worcester based ecological consultants, Swift Ecology. The donation of £300 is the latest of many which the company has made over the years, and for which, the RSNE team is very grateful Although based in Abberley, Worcestershire - a part of the UK where there aren’t any red squirrels, the team has a strong desire to help conserve England’s remaining population of this iconic and charming species for future generations, rather than consign them to text books and the Beatrix Pottter series.
Speaking of the donation, Simon O’Hare, RSNE Red Squirrel Officer said: “It is fantastic to know that Swift Ecology remains so supportive of our work. This latest donation will contribute towards our ongoing conservation work programme in northern England, where we are working tirelessly to ensure reds continue to thrive.” With a combined total of almost 100 years of experience, Swift Ecology consultants share their nationally recognised ecological expertise with a wide range of clients including developers, local authorities, non-profit organisations and householders. Highly experienced in habitat survey and management, the team offers a unique level of specialist advice among its wide range of services and holds relevant licences to work with key protected species including bats, dormouse, great crested newt and barn owl.
