Arrival Information:

• The meeting point for this session is in the carpark. Due to the timing of this session we kindly ask that you arrive no more than 15 minutes before the start time. 

• The workshop is based on a walk-and-talk format therefore we advise dressing appropriately for the weather. Waterproof trousers and boots are recomended due to the long grass.
• If you have your own binoculars or camera please feel free to bring them along!
• Participants must stay with the group throughout the session as the garden is not officially open to the public at the time it takes place. Unfortunately, for the same reason, participants will not be allowed to remain in the garden after the session has finished.
• You are more than welcome to bring a hot drink in a thermos and a snack which you can enjoy en route or at the end!
