Friends of Backhouse Park and Barley Mow Park invite you to another of their events on Monday, June 20, in Backhouse Park from 12.30pm to 6pm. Learn a new skill for your group or just further your knowledge about local wildlife and the environment. Chris, from OPAL environmental surveys, will be holding fun, free-learning sessions, lasting about one hour each. Bats, owls and water voles are all in the park but where are they? The signs are there if you know what to look for. There will be tea, coffee, and maybe some cake. To book a place, contact [email protected] or text 07504096432.

The latest Open Arms coffee morning for carers in and around St Michael’s ward will be held at St Nicholas Church hall, Queen Alexandra Road, on Wednesday, June 1, from 10.30am to noon.
