About this event

Join us for a friendly and relaxed butterfly walk, where we’ll explore the area to see what species we can spot together. Along the way we’ll help identify butterflies and record our sightings, contributing to valuable wildlife data while enjoying time outdoors.

This is a great chance to learn more about local butterflies in a fun and informal setting. Whether you’re completely new or already have an interest in wildlife, everyone is welcome.

Come along, take a gentle stroll, and enjoy discovering the butterflies around you. Suitable for all ages and abilities.
