About Us

The Red Squirrel Survival Trust is a national charity established to ensure the conservation and protection of the red squirrel in the UK.

We aim to:

Protect red squirrels by keeping reds and greys apart.
Assist the winning reds in areas where red squirrel population numbers have stabilised or are increasing.
Establish new red colonies across the UK wherever feasible.
Fund research on how to secure the red squirrel’s long-term future.
Raise awareness of the plight of reds in the UK.
