Maidenhead & Windsor

Ever wondered what it would be like to be an intrepid explorer travelling in far-off lands and discovering amazing new wildlife?

Countryside rangers at Braywick Nature Reserve, Maidenhead are giving 11-to-14-year olds the chance to find out closer to home. They have issued a challenge to youngsters to test their skills on an outdoor adventure while exploring Braywick's wildlife habitats.

'David Attenboroughs-in-training' will discover the underwater world of ponds and the secret life of insects. They will also need to solve some ingenious challenges to see if they have what it takes to become a wildlife conservationist.

There are two 'expeditions' taking place, on Friday July 28 and Friday August 11, both from 2pm to 4pm. Places must be booked in advance on 01628 796227 and cost £4 (£3.50 with an Advantage Card).

Sturdy shoes and sensible clothing should be worn.
