Tuppence a Toad

Common toads have a tough time... 

These small, green garden heroes face big challenges when returning to their breeding ponds every spring, with thousands of them killed on roads as they migrate. Since the 1980s Froglife has been coordinating and supporting Toad Patrols - hard-working volunteers who go out on damp evenings to rescue toads and help them to safety. 

From October 2010 Froglife had a yearlong push of extra effort to spread the word about the plight of common toads far and wide. Through our Tuppence a Toad appeal we have been raised extra funds and awareness to help protect toads into the future.
