May family fun day

Join in activities and craft making

Learn more about the flowers that grow along the towpath and on the banks. Some are familiar, some perhaps less so. On Monday 30th May, from 10am – 3pm, the community volunteers will be outside the Heritage Centre at the Canal Basin, offering family friendly activities (inside if wet). We are inviting children to take part in crafts and activities. This includes:

– making a flowery mask,

– discovering the wildflowers,

– creating a flower frieze,

– decorating a pebble and planting seeds.

The event is free, although we welcome donations to the Trust; no booking is needed. We do ask that parents and carers remain with their children at all times.

The family friendly waterside café will be open all day. The popular boat trips are running through half term too and booking in advance is recommended.  

Celia Javan, Community Team Lead Volunteer, said, ‘We’re keen to find different ways to welcome more families to discover the canal. In February half term over 150 people took part in our family fun day, and we look forward to welcoming new families this month.’

See you there!
