Nature Writing Walks at Hengistbury Head

28 June @ 9:30 am - 12:00 pm
£1

On Sunday 28th June, we are organising three nature writing walks to get you inspired to write through nature!

As part of our partnership with Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots programme and Bournemouth University for this year’s writing competition, we are hosting a writing event to help you get more in-tune with nature – and provide writing prompts to spark your imagination.

Here are the details:
🕤 9:30am for a 10:00am start
📅 Sunday 28th June
📍 Hengistbury Head Visitor Centre
🚶 Walks last up to 90 minutes
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🐶 Family and dog-friendly!
💚 Pay What You Can from £1 (registration required so we can monitor numbers).
🌻 Everyone will receive a planter and sunflower seeds to take home and grow!

All proceeds will be donated to Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots programme.

Once you arrive at the Hengistbury Head Visitor Centre, you can then choose to go on one of three themed walks – all aligned to Roots & Shoots’ nature pillars. Jane Goodall was a leading primatologist so the first letters of the themes are pertinent!

These are:
🐾 Animals – led by Stephen Gregory
👥 People – led by Hengistbury Head Roundhouse curator Hayden Scott-Pratt
🌿 Environment – led by Jamie Derrick

Not only will these walks inject some creative thinking, but it may even give you some ideas for an entry into this year’s writing competition!
