Back for 2024, BIONET's Nature Day will once again take place within the picturesque grounds of Nantclwyd y Dre historic house and gardens, Ruthin.
Conservationists, environmental enthusiasts, and anyone who enjoys getting hands on with nature is invited to the free event taking place on Sunday July 21, between 10.30am and 3.30pm, to meet local wildlife organisations and enjoy fun family activities including facepainting, live storytelling sessions, and willow weaving workshops.
The Nature Partnership of North East Wales, BIONET covers the counties of Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire and Wrexham, working to conserve, protect and enhance the biodiversity of the region for current and future generations.
"For us, Nature Day is all about showcasing the amazing work that is happening within the region to encourage our biodiversity to flourish and inviting the local community to help us celebrate those projects," said Clare Owen, BIONET Project Officer.
She added: "It is also a great opportunity for kids to develop their understanding of the local environment with many of the organisations taking part providing fun ways to learn more about the work they do, and the gardens at Nantclwyd y Dre provides a wonderful setting for the day.”
Joining BIONET will be Chester University, Denbighshire Tree Nursery, Clocaenog Red Squirrel's Trust, Hedgehog Help Prestatyn, Ruthin Friends of the Earth, North Wales Butterfly Conservation, North Wales Wildlife Trust, Wild Ground and more.
Councillor Emrys Wynne, Denbighshire’s Lead Member for Welsh language, Culture and Heritage, said: “The Bionet Nature Day will be a fantastic event at Nantclwyd Y Dre for all ages to experience how we look after our wildlife across the region and what the public can also do in support. I would encourage all families to come and join the free fun activities on the day.”
Nature Day is funded by the Welsh Government Local
Nature Partnership scheme through the WCVA
