This summer, it is hosting a series of “wild weekends” where people can spend time outdoors and learn more about conservation. The events, run by the people behind August’s Into the Wild festival, will take place every weekend from 21 May to 19 September in woods in Chiddinglye, West Sussex. All weekends feature bushcraft workshops (den-building, identifying birdsong), wild crafts (wood carving, flint knapping) and live music. Some have a specific focus, such as folklore, song or yoga, and most are family-friendly. Campers can pitch their own tents or hire bell tents or a woodland cabin. Join Karina from Whittle & Weave at Aqueduct Cottage to create a bird feeder using sustainably sourced willow from the UK. Funds raised through the subscription service will support our research into today’s environmental challenges and find solutions to these issues.

Volunteering your time at a local animal charity or donating much needed supplies is a great way to get involved with an animal awareness day. You may even wish to adopt or foster a pet in need from your local animal shelter, and if you can’t adopt an animal in real life, you can always adopt or sponsor an animal virtually. How can I support an animal day? During Week One, children will discover the UK’s wildlife communities with videos on the common flora and fauna found in our gardens, balconies and window boxes; accompanied by interesting and informative tasks, such as conducting a wildlife survey, and enjoying craft activities and games including wildlife bingo.
