Poet Ella Frears and artist Ben Sanderson, who worked extensively with conservation organisation Back from the Brink to help raise awareness of some of the UK’s most at-risk species, ran several informal poetry and drawing workshops at the Eden Project in Cornwall and in Exeter.
Narrow-headed Ant
They may be small, but these ants have an important role in the heathland where they live - affecting soils, seed banks, and the other wildlife around them. Sadly, the Narrow-headed Ant is now very rare, with just one population in England, in south Devon, and without urgent action we could lose it altogether.
