NPC Reino Unido Proyectos

Protege, educa, facilita, investiga, reforesta y rescata

Nuestro trabajo en el Reino Unido se concentra en la difusión de la conciencia ambiental a través de eventos, campañas, lobbying y recaudación de fondos. A lo largo de los años, nuestro equipo principal ha cambiado con la dimisión e incorporación de nuevos directivos. Actualmente, nuestro consejo se compone de:

Eventos

Realizamos o asistimos a eventos en los que se aumenta la concienciación y la financiación de la conservación y se educa al público británico y, a veces, a otros países europeos.

Leyes

Realizamos campañas para la conservación y el bienestar animal en el Reino Unido. Consultamos regularmente a otras organizaciones y hacemos sugerencias al parlamento sobre la ley de fauna silvestre, así como también promocionamos nuestras causas públicamente.

Recaudación de fondos

Recaudamos fondos en el Reino Unido para apoyar nuestros proyectos en el extranjero. Si quieres ayudar, ¡entra aquí!
