At the Hive we offer a calendar of events to give families unique opportunities to build lasting connections with nature and to explore the outdoor environment through play.

There's plenty of events for adults to join in with across the Lancashire Wildlife Trust, from adult-only wildlife walks, to markets and book fairs.

From our regular Nature Tots sessions to seasonal specials, we have plenty of events where families can connect with nature all year round.

From day packages to completely bespoke events, we will help you book your perfect conference.
