Bees are our unacknowledged partners and ancient allies, vital in the pollination of food crops, keeping farms in business and in helping parks, gardens and the countryside to thrive. Yet bees are in decline in their numbers and their range. The plight of bees is in the press every week.



Royal Mail is issuing these stamps to educate customers and mail senders and receivers about the huge variety of British bees, their vital importance and to promote moves for bee protection.



Royal Mail is not promoting any particular conservation organisation in connection with this issue, but if you are interested in bee species and their identification, and bee conservation visit the Bee Cause website of Friends of the Earth.
