There are 267 types of bee in the UK - a quarter of which are at threat of extinction. Sadly 20 types of British bee have already become extinct.
Bees are in decline - but they play a key role in pollinating crops for our food supply
Bees play a vital role in pollinating the crops used to make the food that we eat, but the insects are under threat from loss of habitat, pesticide use and climate change.
That’s why conservationists are calling on the British public to help make their gardens as “bee friendly” as possible to try and reverse their decline.
At the same time, UK residents are invited to help carry out a bee “census” by taking photos of the ones they spot and uploading them via a dedicated app.
You can download this app from the Apple app store or Andriod.
