Established in 2001, Plantlife Cymru is based in Bangor from where staff carry out conservation work across the whole of Wales.

Plantlife's UK-wide conservation programme, Back from the Brink, includes many rare plants found in Wales, such as Chamomile, Pink Waxcap and Ciliate Strap Lichen. Find out more in our Species conservation pages.

Plantlife Cymru has a lively volunteers programme. If you'd like to become one of our Flora Guardians and help us to monitor endangered plants, please see our Get Involved page for more details.
