The First Minister must stop this project.

There's still time to stop Berwick Bank...but only if we make ourselves heard.

Add your voice and tell them.

Scotland can lead on renewables without sacrificing its seabirds. 👇

Psst! Pumpkins are a treat for birds but can be harmful to hedgehogs. 🦔❌

Keep them high up out of reach and compost any leftovers to protect our garden wildlife.

The title reads 'Pumpkin Dos & Don’ts'. A light-hearted illustrated poster split into two columns with a "Do" section on the left and a "Don't" section on the right. In the "Do" section: three green checkmarks highlight turning pumpkins into bird feeders, keeping them high to avoid foraging Hedgehogs, and composting leftovers to avoid harming wildlife. The "Don't" section features three red crosses, advising against leaving pumpkins on the ground (Hedgehogs might eat them), letting pumpkins rot (it harms wildlife), and wasting pumpkins …encouraging instead to make tasty recipes or bird treats. A cartoon Hedgehog and pumpkin smile from the bottom of the poster, adding a fun and informative feel.

Our Mogg (sadly OTRB 🌈 26 years ago…) once got shut in a garage and I’m sure he made the most of it afterwards…so you are in very good company and should make the most of it!
