Butterfly Conservation is a British charity that aims to save butterflies, moths, and their habitats. Butterfly Conservation has more than 40,000 members in the UK and 32 volunteer-run branches throughout the British Isles. The non-profit company is based in Wareham, UK. The organization operates 36 nature reserves and is leading or involved in 73 landscape-scale projects to conserve habitats. The organization employs over 80 people, including many highly qualified scientists, making it the world's largest research institute for butterflies and moths. Butterfly Conservation's new strategy sets out three key goals to drive forward their work, making a pledge for the impact they will make on threatened species, doubling their impact on landscape restoration, and involving people in transforming spaces for butterflies and moths. The British company was founded in 1968, and Julie Williams has been the CEO of the company since 2000.
