Petition updateSave Our Red Squirrels: Enforce Protection Laws and Protect UK Woodland HabitatThis is what 150 years of decline looks like

We’ve just launched a new interactive map from the Save Our Reds campaign.
It shows, clearly and simply, how red squirrels have been pushed back across the UK - from once being found almost everywhere…to the small pockets where they now cling on.
See it for yourself: saveourreds.netlify.app
Take 30 seconds. Move the timeline.
Watch what disappears.
More than 75,000 people have already backed this campaign. Thank you. 💛
Now we need more people to see the reality.
Because without coordinated national action, we are at risk of losing red squirrels from mainland England within a generation.
This is not about losing a colour.
We are at risk of losing a native species.
