Learn About the UK’s Amazing Temperate Rainforests

British temperate rainforests are of global importance, having the greatest concentration of oceanic lichens and mosses in Europe, they are rare habitats. Plantlife is working to protect their long-term future.

Plantlife – the global voice for wild plants and fungi.

Wild plants and fungi support food chains, are a powerful force against climate crisis and underpin all life on earth. They enrich our natural landscapes, and their beauty and colours can calm our minds.  But 2 in 5 species are currently at risk of extinction.

Plantlife is at the heart of a worldwide network that is spearheading the race to save plants and fungi.

Join us to tackle the greatest challenge of our times. We need wild plants and fungi to survive. Now, they need us too.
