Bug Lab 2024 at Rushmere

Our most popular Bug Lab session is at Rushmere Country Park – a chance for you and your children to hunt for mini-beasts (with experts on hand to help with identification) plus a fun bug-related craft activity.

Location: Bottom meadow, please park in the main car park near the visitor centre and walk down using the footpath. Car park charges will apply.

• Booking essential – no turn ups on the day please!
• All children must be accompanied by an adult
• Not suitable for under 5s (underage siblings are welcome to accompany you and do not require a ticket but we ask that they do not participate)
• Please wear long sleeves, trousers, and suitable footwear
• Outdoor event with little shelter
• No dogs please
• Stay for as long as you like during session
• While equipment and guides are provided, the session involves group work and sharing of materials

Places are limited so you’ll need to book (and make sure you’ve read and accept our booking Terms & Conditions) – accompanying adults are free of charge so you only need to buy a ticket for each participating child at £3.

This event is kindly supported by Central Bedfordshire Council and the Bedfordshire Natural History Society.
