About the event

Bring your children to our Wild Families Action for Nature event to learn how to take action for nature in your own home and garden!

This fun-filled and informative day out for all the family will consist of three sessions to inspire you to help nature:

  • Food for Wildlife
  • Water for Wildlife
  • Homes for Wildlife.

We will then finish the day by making a Pledge for Nature to ensure that Surrey’s nature thrives in 2026!

This event runs from 09:45 - 14:30, with the first activity starting at 10:00.  A family ticket costs just £20 per car (SWT members) or £30 per car (non-members).  

There will be various activities available for your family to enjoy including minibeast hunting, pond dipping, making a bird feeder and sowing a seed in your very own newspaper pot to take home with you.

Hot beverages and biscuits will be available throughout the day, but please bring a packed lunch with you for lunchtime. Nower Wood is a nut-free centre so please avoid any foods containing nuts.

The activities are suitable for children aged 5+ and all children must be accompanied by an adult.

Please book your car parking space ticket in advance. This event is limited by parking spaces, so please car share where possible. If you are a Blue Badge holder, please contact us in advance to book an accessible parking space.
