A CONSERVATION steering group has been set up to share knowledge and best practice about one of the UK’s rarest butterflies.

Essex & Suffolk Water has joined Essex Wildlife Trust, Butterfly Conservation and other partners, for the benefit of the Heath Fritillary Butterfly, one of the UK’s rarest butterfly species.

There are only four locations in south-east Essex where the butterfly is spotted, so the organisations are working together to enhance the areas and increase the butterfly population.
