Our new GHB design has been created for the Sussex Bat Group working in partnership with the Vincent Wildlife Trust. Their project aims to safeguard the greater horseshoe bat species by purchasing and restoring a roost site in Sussex. All funds raised will help to restore, maintain and monitor the building and create a safe haven for the bats.
10% of the purchase price will be donated to this project, run by the Vincent Wildlife Trust& Sussex Bat Group.
You can find out more about the project and donate directly HERE.
This GHB design has been created by Simon Whitehead.
Text reads:
“The mysterious Greater Horseshoe Bat Rhinolophus ferrumequinum pear shaped figure hangs delicately from high perches in old buildings, churches and barns. With a fleshy pink nose and leaf shaped pointed ears, the bat is a rare sight in the woodlands and farmlands in which it lives.”
