BMC volunteers have planted a grand total of 790,000 sphagnum plugs in the Goyt Valley, Peak District, since our Get Stuck In volunteer events started in 2023.

Quick, buy that new pair of summer walking boots or waterproof you've been needing for ages and round up your payment at the till in any Cotswold Outdoor store to fund peatland and seagrass meadow restoration with the BMC.
