The Parks Foundation is a charity which delivers community projects and events in our Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole parks and green spaces.

During term time, half terms and school holidays there are multiple nature based activities for children to enjoy and the best bit is that the events are mostly FREE! Lots of the parks mentioned below have play areas so you could pack a picnic and make use of the facilities for an affordable day out.

This February, children will be able to enjoy sessions with nature crafts, litter picks, build a bird box, winter walks, pinecone bird feeders, tree planting and more.
