A boost for bees on your keys!

We've all seen beleaguered bees on the ground during hot weather, or in places where there aren't many food sources. Join Cumbria Wildlife Trust today and we'll send you a FREE Beevive keyring so that you can give bees a fighting chance, wherever you are. 

The keyring is made of 100% sustainably sourced bamboo and contains a refillable vial of energising sugar water, plus a handful of wildflower seedballs so that you can create bee-friendly habitat. The sugar water is an emergency solution to help an exhausted bee survive. 

Your Beevive keyring comes engraved with the Cumbria Wildlife Trust logo to remind you that your support is helping wildlife in Cumbria every day.

Your membership benefits

Cumbria Wildlife Trust membership grants you access to Wildlife Trust Nature Reserves across the UK – places where you'll hopefully see lots of energetic bees going about their important pollinating business!

You'll receive our Cumbrian Wildlife magazine, which we send out three times a year, and the accompanying What's On guide, full of events and activities for you to get involved with. Click here to view a sample copy of the magazine

We'll also send you email updates about wildlife around the county & news from behind the scenes at the Trust. This includes a bi-monthly long-read article, Cumbrian Wildlife Extra, that gives you greater insight into an area of our work.

Bring mini bee-lovers into the hive with a family membership! As well as the benefits above, this includes a ‘Wildlife Watch’ membership for up to 4 children at the same address. You'll get The Wildlife Watcher's Handbook, our Wildlife Watch magazine four times a year, posters and stickers. 

Our family membership is great for getting kids interested in nature. Your child can come along to our family events and get involved in fun, practical activities, like pond-dipping, rock-pooling and mini-beast hunts, or join their local Wildlife Watch group.
