BBC TV presenter Kate Silverton will launch the Summer of Wildlife day at 11am. Don’t miss her interviews with wildlife experts on stage in the courtyard. There will be plenty of experts on hand all day to tell you about the fabulous creatures that live in the UK. The Bat Conservation Trust, the Amphibian and Reptile Conservation Trust, Butterfly Conservation Trust and the Field Studies Council are just a few of the twenty wildlife organisations participating in this festival of nature.

Join experts on a bird watching walk to see which species are around or grab a net to try your hand at a bit of ‘citizen science’ on one of our freshwater surveys. If plants are your passion our horticulture warden will show you around our sustainable gardens and offer tips on how to attract wildlife to your own green space. In fact there are a whole host of walks and talks for you to participate in throughout the day; you don’t need any previous experience, just bags of enthusiasm!

And there will be plenty for younger visitors to do too, from pond dipping and storytelling to wildlife trails and crafts.
