Wildlife Watch: Adventure, craft and fun in the outdoors. Grown-ups can even join in too!

As summer starts to draw to a close, we are going to be looking at the wetland habitat, what is happening here at this time of year and the species this amazing place supports. 

Meet inside at Rainton Meadows Visitor Centre. Wear suitable outdoor clothing for the weather: long sleeves, trousers and sturdy footwear such as boots or wellies are recommended. You can bring a hot/cold drink and snacks, although these are available at our cafe. 

Members and non-members welcome. Booking is essential and children must be accompanied by a supervising adult. Tickets are only required for children. Please provide a contact telephone number when booking. As places are limited, if you are unable to attend, please email us so that we may offer the space to another participant.
