Support David, our Epic Fellrunning Fundraiser!
Have you ever fancied taking part in a 268 mile race across the Pennine Way? Nope, neither have we.
But lucky for us, one incredible supporter is doing just that to raise funds for Curlew Action.
Follow this link to read in David Padmore's own words, exactly why he is taking on this enormous challenge in January and learn what Curlew Action and Curlew conservation mean to him.
Bringing the Curlew to Stroud!
This World Curlew Day we brought the magic of the Eurasian Curlew to Stroud with a stunning mural by ATM Street Art. We’re still welcoming donations to help cover the cost of this beautiful mural featuring a Curlew and chick, building awareness of Curlews in Gloucestershire and the urgent conservation efforts needed to protect them.
We will be expanding the mural further this summer, to include a soil profile.

EUROPEAN CURLEW FIELDWORKER WORKSHOP
From the 9 -11 February 2024, Curlew Action hosted the largest ever conference for Curlew fieldworkers. Over 100 practical Curlew conservationists from across the UK, Ireland, France, Finland, The Netherlands, Germany, Belgium and Poland came together to exchange views and experiences.
In early February 2025, we then held an Online Headstarting Workshop bringing together Curlew headstarting projects from across Europe.
With the success of these two events, we will be holding our second European Curlew Fieldworkers Workshop in early February 2026 in Lancashire. Stay tuned for more details...

Ground-nesting birds
From March-July we need to be extra careful to protect nests. Curlews nest on the ground and so are particularly vulnerable to disturbance from walkers, cyclists and inquisitive pooches.
Let's work together to make sure Curlews have a successful nesting season by keeping to paths and having dogs on leads in nesting areas.
Our three signs are available to download for free in English or Welsh. Additionally, laminated and plastic corrugated signs can be ordered from us.
