About the event

Join our Northants Nature Girls group! For this event we'll be heading on a walk around Summer Leys to enjoy wildlife and get to know each other, before heading back to the visitor centre to have a go at making some beeswax wraps that you will be able to take home with you (a great plastic free alternative to using cling film!).

CAR PARKING: Car parking charges apply for Summer Leys and can be paid for on the day (card payments only). Parking for members of the Wildlife Trust BCN is FREE - Members MUST register their vehicles to access free parking, for more information please visit here.

Who are the Northants Nature Girls?

This is a group designed for all women (including trans, intersex and non-binary people) who love nature and the outdoors to meet like minded people, whilst enjoying time in nature. Most people attend these events alone, and is a great way to get chatting to some fellow nature lovers. Can't join us this time? We will be hosting monthly meetings throughout the year so keep your eyes peeled!

You can also join our Facebook group here, to connect with others and hear about upcoming events.
