In recent years there have been regular sightings of bumblebees active throughout the winter season. BWARS wishes to gather information about this activity, in order to investigate whether or not this phenomenon is on the increase in the British Isles.
If you see any bumblebees this winter please tell us about it.

All the info on that page seems to relate to last winter- are they definitely collecting data this year as well?
Not sure tbh
I found it from a link posted by Thrive on twitter

Where are they finding flowers in freezing weather?
I saw one two days ago, couldn't believe it.
