Cumbria's Red Squirrels

Film following Cumbria's red squirrels throughout the seasons and revealing the work of some of the many people who ensure they continue to thrive and survive.

An endangered species as well as a national favourite, affectionately known as 'red scamps', these beautiful creatures have lived here for thousands of years. Award-winning Cumbrian film-maker Terry Abraham reveals how Lakeland charities, volunteers, businesses and scientists are pulling together to protect these rare animals.
