Green Spaces
I am at your service. Last year i organised or helped with 82 events like guided walks or school groups, involving nearly 2000 people.This year i would like to do more.
Most people like the idea of enjoying nature by getting out into more green spaces. On average , we make 2.5 billion visits to parks and green spaces each year. (Public Park Assessment, 2001)
It is also fun. Finding out about trees, plants, birds,and bees and watching them go through the drams of their life cycles is as good as TV. Check out www.digitalmags.co.uk to see how i helped artspace youngsters discover their local heritage and wildlife.
If you, or a group you are a member of – or even you and a group of friends - would be interested in getting the goodness out of Perth’s open spaces, below are some things i can do to help:
Guided walks, illustrated talks (where to go, what’s of interest, wildlife topics), ideas for activities to do with children, general information on areas like Kinnoull Hill, St Magdalene’s Hill, The Lade and their wildlife.
