Join us at Whistlewood to celebrate and appreciate this great planet we call our home.Linking in with International Earth Day (22nd April), we are taking a low key approach this year and setting an intention for a relaxing afternoon for all.
Entry to our Earth Day Celebration is free for all but we would love it if you would let us know you are coming by booking a ticket above. At least we’ll know how many cars to cater for! (We positively encourage walking to the event though!) Popping in on the day is also fine – everyone is welcome. Please bring your pennies with you as there maybe a small charge for some of the activities. Cards will be OK too but we prefer cash; as a not-for-profit organization cash goes so much further for us.
If you are considering volunteering at Whistlewood please do come along to find out more.
