Why give money to the British Ecological Society?
Ecology's purpose is to provide knowledge about the way the world works and provide evidence on the interdependence between the natural world and people. Never before has this understanding been so important. A better understanding of ecological systems will allow society to predict the consequences of human activity on the environment.
Established in 1913 by professional ecologists to promote and foster the study of ecology in its widest sense, the BES is well placed to support areas of excellence and most need within the field of Ecology. Over the past 100 years the BES has developed and supported activities to do this.
Every year there are more worthwhile projects than funds available and so every donation will count.
To see where some of the BES funds are used, have a look at our current Grants and Awards Portfolio website.

We have put together some guidance notes for download but also feel free to contact our offices for more information on giving to the BES and or visit the Frequently Asked Questions webpage.
The UK budget announcement in March 2011 stated that those leaving more than 10% of their estate to charity will see their inheritance tax reduced by 10% from April 2012.
