If you want to learn how people used Saltwell Park in Victorian times or the different cycles plants go through, then why not come along to one of our Saltwell Explorers events.
The Saltwell Explorers project helps you to learn about everything the park has to offer through educational visits, craft events or hands on, practical conservation tasks.
