About the event

This activity is part of a series of outdoor opportunities to enjoy nature in our West Cambs 100s nature reserves, with a focus on sitting for a sociable chat, rather than walking.

We'll stroll a short distance on flat surfaced paths to find a nice spot in the woods to set up picnic blankets or camping chairs. We'll soak up the wildlife vibes, perhaps identify some summer flowers, or listen to bird song, and enjoy a sociable chat, a cuppa, and a biscuit together.

These sessions are aimed at adults of all ages, we'd love an inter-generational mix! Parents or carers with babies are welcome. Paths are suitable for pushchairs and wheelchairs. We are especially keen to offer places on these free activities to local people.
