Butterfly Conservation

Who they are

Butterfly Conservation was formed in 1968 by a small group headed Sir Peter Scott as the British Butterfly Conservation Society. The aim of the new Society was to try to halt the decline of these lovely insects and at the same time help safeguard the environment itself. Specifically they aimed to conserve both butterflies and moths, as well as the habitats on which they depend.
