About the event

Welcome to Suffolk Wildlife Trust!

Join us for a relaxed and informal event where guests will have the chance to discover more about Suffolk Wildlife Trust and all the great work the charity achieves across the county. In a beautiful setting at Lackford Lakes, staff and volunteers will be on hand to chat and answer questions about our work, nature reserves, events and volunteering. 

This is an opportunity to walk, explore and learn about the wildlife of Lackford Lakes.  Wildlife Guides will be on hand to help you spot wildlife on the day and you can join a guided walk with the Warden at either 10:30 or 14:00. Get the best out of your visit by hiring a pair of binoculars and pick up a free wildlife activity sheet for all the family to enjoy.

The café at Lackford sells great coffee and other barista drinks, toasties, hot and cold savouries, locally made ice cream, delicious cakes and snacks including Vegetarian, Vegan and GF options.
