Free access to wetlands near you with Generation Wild
GENERATION Wild is a free programme aimed at providing primary children in disadvantaged areas around the UK the opportunity to connect with nature. Research has shown that a connection with nature has huge positive benefits to children’s mental and physical wellbeing, concentration, behaviour and attainment. Through an engaging narrative and a specially designed activity trail, children will be able to explore the natural world around them wherever they live.
Generation Wild is offered free at seven wetlands centres, including London
Wetland Centre, based on a percentage of pupils registered for free school meals. All participating children also receive a free family ticket to the centre so they can return with their families, and access to a website full of activities local to them. Visit generationwild.wwt.org.uk
