Welcome to Restore UK
Restore UK was established in 2001 as a grant-making charity to invest in the protection and restoration of Britain's natural habitat.
This vision has since expanded to incorporate environmental and bio-diversity issues globally.

Featured Project
Save our Squirrels
The Save our Squirrels project is the largest single species conservation initiative in the UK.
Restore UK has provided funding to help control the number of grey squirrels threatening the red squirrel through competition for food and habitat and probably through transmission of the squirrelpox virus. Several new voluntary groups have formed in Northumbria as well as the `umbrella organisation` Northern Red Squirrels. Restore UK has agreed additional funding to provide traps, equipment and training workshops to help the planning and coordination of grey squirrel control in these new areas which now includes Cumbria.

Special Update
Bee Buddies
Honeybees are vital to our survival. They allow 70 percent of flowering plants to reproduce, accounting for over 30 percent of the foods and beverages we consume. The British Bee Keeping Association says if action is not taken Honeybees will disappear from Britain by 2018.
Restore UK is funding five beehives on the roof of Weston Park Museum in Sheffield. This is part of a project run by Groundwork Sheffield which aims to restore Honeybee populations by installing domestic hives on underused urban spaces.
