Kent's Plan Bee Pollinator Challenge 2022
Kent's Plan Bee
Pollinator Challenge
You can use these support materials to help your
children complete the Kent's Plan Bee Challenge.
Pollination is one of the most important and fundamental
processes of the natural world. In the UK, all our pollinators are
insects, such as bees, butterflies, moths, beetles, and flies.
Unfortunately, many pollinator populations are decreasing in
number, with the biggest impact being caused by the loss of feeding
and nesting habitats.
Kent's Plan Bee is the County Council's pollinator action plan,
which commits the authority to improving, where appropriate and
feasible, its services and manages its estate to support
pollinators in the county. It also aims to encourage local
communities across Kent to do their bit to improve the food sources
and general habitat for pollinators in Kent.
We can all play a role in conserving these small but vital
insects, and the habitats and plant communities they depend on.
This Kent County Council Children's University Pollinator Challenge
provides lots of activities that contribute greatly towards this -
so what will you do to help?
