How might a poet respond to the rhythms and echoes of bats? Join us at the Botanic Garden for a unique evening that pairs natural science with poetic exploration.

As dusk settles, you’ll begin a guided walk through the Garden’s woodland paths to experience one of the UK’s most vital – yet often misunderstood – mammals. Using handheld detectors, we will tune in to the unique, high-frequency calls of bats as they navigate the night’s sky.

Come for a twilight ramble through the Botanic Garden and learn about the fascinating world of bats.  There will be a chance to use our bat detectors, find out about what bats eat, where they live and have your questions answered.

Suitable for adults and accompanied children aged 8+. This event is weather dependent. Bookings will open soon.

What better way to celebrate summer than by making a crown of flowers? We will be using all kinds of leaves, flowers and grasses to create amazing botanical crowns that you can wear all day long while you explore the Botanic Garden. Drop-in to join in the fun. All ages welcome, no need to pre-book. Find us in the Garden Room at the Schools Garden.

Normal Garden admission applies for accompanying adults.

Join us at this school holiday drop-in activity where we will be decorating little pots and then planting them up with easy to grow herbs and salad that you can harvest and eat in a few weeks time.

Normal Garden admission applies for accompanying adults.

At the Disability Friendly Opening, the museum will be open exclusively for families with children with sensory sensitivities. This event is aimed at children with special educational needs who usually find visiting museums overwhelming due to conditions that affect their sensory processing and/or have a developmental disability.

Mark Hehlen is a PhD Candidate in Polar Studies at the Scott Polar Research Institute. Join us for the chance to learn more about his research in his talk, 'Why West Antarctica is Critical for Sea Level Rise and the International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration.'
