Ensure swifts like 'Lucky' have a safe 'forever' nest when they return to have their own swiftlets in years to come.

Build it & they will come!
Fundraising effort to install more nestboxes for Pied Flycatchers in north Sheffield - an initiaitive which has already shown great success.
Can you help Wharncliffe Heath Trust get their appeal over the line this winter?

Email Gillian.Martin.msp@parliament.scot and ask the SNP to back @markruskellโs swift brick amendment so #Scotland can still save its swifts.
Volunteers such as โฆโฆ@ChetCunagoโฉ from โฆ@SheffSwiftNetโฉ save swifts every year. Email SNPโs Gillian.Martin.msp@parliament.scot to tell the SNP to embrace โฆ@markruskellโฉ swift brick amendment instead of saying no. They vote next week. #Scotland can save swifts

Planning roof repairs or putting up scaffolding?
A Sheffield resident turned a roof replacement into a chance to help swifts!
By providing artificial nests heโs helping onceโthriving colonies recover.

Iโve woken up even more furious as I process what #Labour has done. A 3 line whip to ensure swift bricks are blocked after promising to do it? What a betrayal. People power will work. Email me at thefeatherspeech@gmail.com & youโll get a template to amend & use

#SwiftBricks - modest amendment supporting #biodiversity in the Planning and Infrastructure - for beautiful birds for whom a place to nest is a matter of life and death - defeated by stacked government benches

We challenge Lord Krebsโ claim that Amendment 245 wonโt work. Swifts DO nest in 4โ5m buildings & need swift bricks to survive as old sites vanish
This practical step helps save swifts from extinction.
Listen to swift conservation experts!

61 Swift nest bricks now nestle in the homes around Sheffieldโs Shire Brook Valley!
Thanks to amazing residents, swifts - and a host of other species now - have safe places to raise their young year after year.

We are incredibly upset to learn of Steve Reedโs change of approach and will continue to campaign for the mandating of swift bricks in new developments, the best intervention to halt the catastrophic decline of our swifts.
