Wildlife Charity Urges Gardeners To Give An 'Extra Hand' This Week

"Small actions can make a big difference."

The UK has provisionally broken May temperature records multiple days in a row now, the Met Office said.

On Monday, 25 May, we saw a then-record-breaking 34.8°C in Kew Gardens. By Tuesday, we got an even hotter 35.1°C in the same spot; the previous record was 32.8°C, last recorded in 1944.

These temperatures can be tough on our sleep, our lawns, and, as charity federation The Wildlife Trusts told us, the creatures in our backyards.

That’s why they told us gardeners should offer an “extra hand” this week, as temperatures are expected to stay high
