Branch out on your woodland knowledge

On Sunday 12 January NatureEd will be taking den enthusiasts back to nature and exploring the beautiful woodland around the Hollingworth Lake country park.

NatureEd is a social enterprise which provides education activities for schools and community groups. It offers exciting ‘hands on’ activities for all the family.

NatureEd will be hosting fun woodland activities for all the family. Building dens and shelters is a lost art but with NatureEd supplying direction and information on how to build the perfect woodland retreat, it’s easy!

The event will last two hours and will focus on exploring the woodlands and harvesting natural materials for shelters. The attendees will also receive information on the local habitat.

·  Meet at the Hollingworth Lake Visitor’s Centre at 1.30pm. 

·  The cost per person is £2.50 and a child must always be accompanied by an adult.

For more information and to book a place, please contact the Visitor Centre on 01706 373421.
