You can help Swifts by saving their nesting places. It is important that as building work is carried out, Swifts are not excluded from their traditional nesting sites. Everyone from individuals to local authorities can make a difference.
For example, local authorities can introduce pro-active policies to help Swifts.
If you are really concerned about the Swifts you can alert local authorities about proposed demolition or conversion of old properties such as hospitals, mills and warehouses, so that representations can be made to the owners, developers, architects, builders and local planning authorities.
You can also create access for Swifts into your roof, by leaving or creating small holes, or you can hang a Swift nestbox.
You can either make a nestbox youreself, or buy a ready-made one. Please contact your national BirdLife partner to get the information on how to build a proper box for Swifts.
