On Fridays we have our forest fun sessions in Fir Walk. There’s bug hunts, quizzes, tracker packs and lots of activities to get your hands dirty and to run around having fun. Some of the activities will even help you complete our 50 things challenge.

We’ll be there from 11am-3pm, and we’re looking forward to seeing you there too.
