- RSPB: Plant a hedge for wildlife
- Woodland Trust on hedgerows: “Vital features in the landscape, hedges are more than an essential refuge for wildlife. Small but mighty, they also clean our air, capture carbon, reduce flooding and give clues to historic land management” and how to plant and maintain them.
- Wildlife Trust on hedgerows
- CPRE’s insider’s guide to hedgerows: “what actually is a hedgerow – and why are we so keen on them?”
