ABOUT US
Badger Trust is a charity that exists to promote and enhance the welfare, conservation and protection of badgers, their setts, and their habitats. We are the leading voice for badgers in England and Wales, with a network of over 50 local voluntary badger groups, and supported by thousands of supporters and followers. HISTORY
We started as The National Federation of Badger Groups, which was formed in January 1986 and later evolved into Badger Trust in 2005. Despite significant progress made along the way in terms of legal protection for this iconic species, badgers across the UK are under threat more than ever before. WHAT WE DO
Badger Trust runs a number of campaigns to push for a better world for badgers. Our work covers badger culling (proposed, actual or related matters), crimes against badgers, road traffic casualties, planning and development issues that threaten badgers and their habitat, education and badger ecology.

2022 marks the 30th anniversary of the Protection of Badgers Act (1992) and our campaign calls for tougher sentencing for those who commit crimes against badgers. You can take action now to help speak up for badgers. PBA30 Campaign: https://www.badgertrust.org.uk/protection-of-badgers-act

We will not tolerate any content that is offensive or abusive, including material that is obscene, violent, aggressive, argumentative, harassing, defamatory, unlawful, insulting, indecent or otherwise objectionable. This includes any language that can be construed as offensive, sexist, racist or homophobic. Please note that we retain the right to hide or remove any comments that we consider inappropriate.

OUR MODERATION POLICY
In general, we don’t moderate posts on our page – except when offensive language is used or libellous allegations are made. We have a duty to protect our staff and volunteers, so while deleting comments is the last resort and very unusual, our position is that any post containing libellous accusations should be removed. If an individual continues to post content contrary to Our Clan Rules (as above), we’ll be forced to block that person from the page, but we would prefer not to do this as it detracts from the purpose of our work and takes up our time. Warnings will be given beforehand. Website: https://www.badgertrust.org.uk/
