I know I've mentioned getting outside and visiting one of our reserve this summer, but did you know the range of activities and events they have to offer?

Activities and events

There are all sorts of activities around the countries to keep young people (and older people) happy throughout the summer holidays. This weekend our RSPB Dungeness reserve in Kent are hosting a free Family Fun Weekend with activities such as pond-dipping, face painting and bug hunting. If you're near Cornwall, then why not make a date with nature by discovering coastal wildlife through specially set up telescope, with knowledgeable staff to guide you who knows what you might see.

Those are only a couple of things happening on our reserves in the coming week, to find out what's near you just take a peek here.

Become a Wildlife Explorer

Our youth membership package is a great way of introducing children to nature and to really develop their interest and curiosity about the natural world around them. We cater for each age group, so there will always be something to inspire them as they mature and grow - whether it be taking part in some of our competitions, reading one of our specially designed magazines for their age or participating in an activity. Your child will also receive 'welcome' goodies from us when they become a Wildlife Explorer...
