About the event

Join a Dorset Wildlife Trust warden for this adult and family event at The Fine Foundation Wild Chesil Centre, for a morning dedicated to butterflies. As summer heats up and flowers burst into bloom, we will take a walk around the nature reserve, looking for butterfly species feeding on nectar. Our staff and volunteers will help you identify the butterflies and other wildlife we see along the way. Following the walk, head over to the café for a hot drink and a piece of cake.

This event is suitable for adults and families with children aged 8 to 15. All children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
