About the event

Join us to explore different habitats and discover the nature we might find at the Centre for Wildlife Gardening during the Autumn months. 

Woodlice, spiders, worms and toads are just a selection of the amazing animals that you might find, as well as fungi and bountiful hedgerows of rosehips, nuts and berries. Activities will include using nets to look at animals found in the pond and looking under logs to see what minibeasts we can find.

Meet in the visitor centre/classroom.

This session will be led a member of our Learning & Engagement team. 

Sessions are aimed at children of all ages and parents/carers together. All children must be accompanied throughout the session by a responsible adult. 

No need to book, just drop in on the day. 

This is a free event, but donations are welcome. All profits are invested into London Wildlife Trust’s conservation and education work and the care of its nature reserves.

Mobility

All of the Centre for Wildlife Gardening is accessible for wheelchair users except for the Woodland Path, which is too narrow for most wheelchairs.

The area around the new visitor centre and main path down to the pond dipping platform has accessible surfaces, whilst other footpaths around the site are surfaced in woodchip. Some of the surfaces are uneven or covered in some vegetation.

There is a quiet indoor classroom area that can be used for breaks.

Wheelchair access

The visitor's centre is fully accessible and the site is partially wheelchair accessible.

What to bring

Come dressed for the weather, as we will be outside for the whole session come rain or shine!
