The Sussex Bat Group was formed in 1984 to help conserve bats in East and West Sussex. The Group is a registered charity made up of volunteers who share a passion for bats. We are affiliated with the Bat Conservation Trust.
Bats are facing serious population declines across the UK. There is a bat group in nearly every county working to help reverse this decline.
The aims of the Sussex Bat Group are to:
Help conserve bats and their habitat.
Raise awareness of bats and their conservation.
These aims are achieved by:
Recording and monitoring bat populations in Sussex.
Assisting Natural England with roost visits where threats to
bats may exist.
Carrying out conservation projects such as bat box schemes,
improving roost sites or opening and protecting potential sites.
Organising talks and educational events throughout the year.
Providing a care and rescue
service for sick and injured bats, with the back up of permanent bat
hospitals.
