About the event

As part of our Wilder Luton project, which aims to educate and engage older children and young people with the natural landscape found around Luton we have launched a new, monthly, Wild Ed session for 12-18yr olds educated at home.

Meeting the 3rd Monday of each month at the Bushmead Community Hub garden, we will provide a chance to learn new gardening and woodwork skills by looking after and improving this communal green space.

Nearby is the Bradgers Hill nature reserve and there will be a chance to explore this site, to help look after it and to try out some bush craft activities. Sessions will depend on the season but will always be based outdoors so please come dressed for the weather. Only in extreme conditions such as high winds or heavy rain will sessions be cancelled.

Thanks to the National Heritage Lottery funding we can offer these sessions at £4.50 per child (+eventbrite fee)

If you have younger children please do look at our 'Wild Ed-Primary' sessions, also running monthly on Monday afternoons at Wardown Park
