Are you looking forward to a Norfolk holiday at the end of the July?
One way to make your stay extra special would be to head to the launch of National Parks Week on July 25th.
Families on holiday in Norfolk are invited to pack a picnic and go to Cary’s Meadow Local Nature Reserve in Thorpe, where you can learn about all sorts of wildlife.
The Broads Authority and Norwich Fringe Project are hosting the day as part of the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad scheme, Discovering Places.
Mainly funded by the National Lottery, the event is an open-air party that comes complete with a delicious chocolate birthday cake.
Matt Davies, Norwich Fringe Project manager, said: “The Picnic in the Park is an opportunity to explore the countryside on your doorstep and learn about nature.”
Many of you will be familiar with the famous Norfolk Broads, but there’s loads more to this region just waiting to be discovered.
And similar events are running all over the UK until August 1st, so it’s well worth making the most of the great outdoors during this exciting week.
