On September 2nd and 3rd this year, Trewern will be giving you the chance to sample a few of the things that we do here at the Centre. We’re offering a fun mix of activities and ecology over two days for £10 per activity session (i.e. morning, afternoon and/or evening), with the option of staying over on Saturday night, as we’ll continue our activities into the night (fees vary according to the type of accommodation required). Activities suitable for young people from 8-16, adults also welcome to join in.
Planned activities are as follows (timings approximate):
