Dragonflies urgently need your help!

Sadly many species of dragonfly, from the dainty Southern Damselfly to the shy Common Clubtail, are at risk as a result of global threats, such as habitat destruction and water pollution. Over the past century we have lost 90% of our freshwater wetlands and, as a result, dragonflies and other aquatic animals have less space to call home.

At the British Dragonfly Society we are dedicated to safeguarding our precious wetland ecosystems and promoting the creation of more freshwater habitat for dragonflies. In addition, BDS staff work hard all year round to spread appreciation and knowledge of dragonflies through educational outreach, while our dedicated team of volunteers trek the country, from urban parks to mountain streams, recording dragonfly populations

Every penny you send us goes towards helps our staff and volunteers in their quest and puts us one step closer to ensuring dragonflies have a safe future in Britain.

  • Gift Aid Declaration

    By agreeing that your subscription or donation is given under the Gift Aid scheme you are helping the BDS by enabling us to reclaim the notional tax on the amount given. Currently this is worth an additional 25% on top of the amount given and you incur no additional cost. You do need to pay income tax or capital gains tax equal to the amount that we can reclaim to be able to sign up for the scheme. Signing up is particularly attractive if you are fortunate enough to pay tax at above the basic rate because you can reclaim from HM Revenue & Customs the additional tax paid above the basic rate.
