About the event

Here's an opportunity to chat with Becca Badger about local wildlife, upcoming events, or volunteering. There will be some free drop-in activities for all ages. You could make some sustainable craft, challenge your family to some welly wanging, (this just means chucking a welly boot as far as you can!), or create your own challenge sheet to take on a walk around the meadows. We'd also love to hear about your own Trumpington Meadows wildlife highlight. You'll find us set up near the picnic benches by the Ranger's Office...look for the gazebo!

All ages (including adults) will find something to enjoy, even if it is just a chat!
