Avon Wildlife Trust and the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) are now working with people across Bristol and Bath to create a 43 mile (70km) “bee-line” for the Pollinator Pathways Project.

It will run from Chew Valley, up the east of Bath, to South Gloucestershire to help pollinator insect populations grow.

Shelly Easton, head of nature’s recovery at Avon Wildlife Trust said: “The focus this time is on hoverflies because they’re vital for food security. A third of our food requires pollination. This includes apples, strawberries, nuts and rapeseed oil.”
