Beaver support and advice at Somerset Wildlife Trust

Contact Details

The Somerset Catchment Beaver Advisory Group (BAG) is currently being formally established to support people, places and wildlife adapt to renewed co-existence with wild beavers. However, in the interim, Somerset Wildlife Trust is happy to provide advice or signpost to other organisations with the appropriate technical knowledge and expertise to support communities living in the Somerset Catchment Partnership area. We are also working closely with our colleagues in the Bristol Avon and Somerset Frome BAG to support communities in the Somerset Frome catchment. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Respect the open water environment and its ecological importance. Check your equipment is clean, dry and free from invasive plants or animals when visiting new sites. We would recommend using the biosecurity procedures outlined in the Check Clean Dry campaign. Be mindful of the impact your activities might have on the aquatic ecosystem and aim to work in a way that preserves the natural balance, protecting these vital water sources and their inhabitants for future generations.

This website has been designed to support communities and land managers living alongside beavers in Britain. It is also a useful source of relevant information on Beaver Advisory/Management Groups in river catchments where wild beavers are becoming established. It has been designed by Devon Wildlife Trust and Beaver Trust.
