Conservation
How are we conserving the House Sparrow?

Project nestbox
One of the key reasons House Sparrows are declining is due to a lack of nesting spaces.
But, through a combination of selling some old belongings, some prolific skip-diving and the generosity of some of you, I've been able to make my own nestboxes, and now have several installed on everywhere from schools to golf courses.
Feel free to have a look at one recently installed at Grange Primary School: Grange Infant school (savethehousesparrow.com)
Invertebrates
Invertebrates are declining 8x faster than mammals, birds and reptiles, having knock on effects on all the fauna relying on them, including House Sparrows.

Please sign the petition below to re-wild Hampshire's roadside verges, creating a network of habitats for invertebrates. And go to Blog> All posts> Resources> Roadside Verge Email to do some campaigning yourself!
(Recently received news that Hampshire County Council has adopted the ideas we recommended, so I'm now in the process of finding another cause/goal for you all to get behind! Watch this space*.
