Activities
Enhancing green spaces in London where all natural pollinators can thrive, and their habitats can be enjoyed by all.
“I am very excited to be supporting Pollinating London Together. It’s a brilliant initiative that brings attention to the importance of increasing green spaces in our great city. This is something that I am very passionate about. I hope that PLT’s work will encourage others to take action”.
Former Lord Mayor of London, Alderman William Russell
PLT’s activities are designed to address three specific objectives:
- To redress the decline in pollinators in urban environments by promoting action to increase pollinator-friendly planting and habitats in the City of London and its immediate environs;
- To raise awareness of the human benefits of pollinators and pollinator-friendly planting across the wider population of residents, workers, and organisations in the City of London;
- To inform and encourage companies, organisations, and individuals to make meaningful decisions to make this happen.
To achieve its objectives, PLT engages in a variety of activities to raise awareness, educate, and influence action that will help pollinators and their habitats thrive. Specific activities include:
- Creating new networks for positive action, change, and influence;
- Running a greenspace audit programme for outdoor spaces in the City of London;
- Running events to engage PLT members and other groups on the importance, needs, and joy of pollinators and their role in nature and human life;
- Providing a resource library with information sheets and videos to help others learn about pollinators and take positive action.
