About the event

Join us on the 2nd Saturday of the month for Wild Families!* A session for exploring the reserve, learning about wildlife, and taking action for nature. Guided by our Engagement Officer.

Ideal for spending time with Dad this Fathers' Day!

Sessions will vary each month but will typically involve a wildlife activity and a craft. This month's theme: Brilliant bees! Search for bees on the reserve, find out what makes them special, and make your own bee hotel to take home! Please bring an clean empty tin can for this session.

Please note all children must be accompanied by an adult. This event is aimed at families with children aged 5+, however, younger siblings are welcome to attend when accompanying an older sibling and you can book their ticket at a discounted rate.

We also run a weekly Wild Tots session for toddlers, and monthly session Young Naturalists for unaccompanied 11-16 year olds.

*Please note Wild Families may not run every month, we may instead have a big event on or a one-off pause. Please check our events pages for the most up-to-date information. 

Your booking onto this event is taken as acceptance of our event terms and conditions which can be found here: www.suffolkwildlifetrust.org/eventinfo
