A range of activities for all ages will be taking place at the event on Saturday July 16th from 2-5pm including pond dipping, plant hunting, face painting and moth identification.

Anyone wishing to attend should meet at the local nature reserve car park located on Coast Road, Berrow opposite Sandy Glade Caravan Park.
