Here's our latest blog from @RSPB on if our most at-risk and precious species are really being helped by sites designated for them.
SSSIs, SACs, SPAs, 'designated landscapes', nature reserves... whatever you call them, how are they doing for nature?
Guest Blog: Rachel Bedwin at RSPB Cymru Nature is in crisis in Wales – wildlife numbers are plummeting, with one in six species at risk of being lost from Wales according to the State of Nature 2023. In a new report on ‘Species in Peril’, Natural Resources Wales (NRW) concluded that almost 3000 species in […]
Our key - in full in the manifesto PDFs - explains each numbered area and links to briefings and sites with more information.

We've launched a new UK-wide report today on our '30 by 30' commitments - to protect and manage at least 30% of land and sea for nature by 2030. https://nation.cymru/news/wales-on-course-to-miss-nature-target-by-a-country-mile/
