News - Breathing Places

The Breathing Places campaign has been set up to to make it easier to find out about the wildlife that lives near us and to do something practical to help nature where we live.

Inspired by the millions of people who watch British wildlife programmes, the BBC has teamed up with hundreds of organisations to create Breathing Places across the UK.  Breathing Places are areas that have been transformed by local people, creating an oasis for people and wildlife.  A Breathing Place is somewhere where you can escape the hassles of everyday life, listen to the birdsong, smell the primroses and bluebells in spring and appreciate the autumn colours!

Aggregate Industries is supporting The Wildlife Trust’s role in the BBC Breathing Places campaign which aims to inspire millions of people to get involved with nature. A leader in the construction and building materials sector, Aggregate Industries has been awarded the British Standards Institution award for ‘Most Innovative Organisation’ in recognition of its commitment to environmental management across its UK operations.

Aggregate Industries’ support for The Wildlife Trusts is helping develop the Communities campaign for Breathing Places which encourages local people to transform thousands of places across the UK for the benefit of wildlife and people.
