We are delighted to announce the return of our supervised pond dipping sessions on Saturday and Sunday afternoons, guided by our knowledgeable volunteer team.These sessions are open to families with children aged 4 +
We will be there to make sure you keep safe and help you identify the creatures you catch.
Frequently Asked Questions:
No booking required - if sessions are busy, we may ask you to walk around the reserve and then return
Additional sessions may be added - keep an eye on social media for updates
Children aged 4 and upwards can pond dip accompanied by an adult, plus the activity is open for any adults to join in
1 dipping station will be allocated per family - children can take turns dipping in larger groups
Younger children can be present, but are too young to pond dip
Adults are able to take part without children
Some stations are wheelchair / pushchair accessible - dipping would depend on individual circumstances
Please see poster for more details.

PLEASE NOTE
We are unable to offer unsupervised pond dipping at the Reserve in view of the need to conserve the pond wildlife, maintain visitor safety and critically we must ensure bio security for the Reserve as a whole.
We have had several instances over the past few weeks of visitors dipping in various ponds unsupervised, and bringing their own nets and trays.
Please do not remove or introduce any wildlife to our ponds.
Thank you
