Guided by local artist Aimee Harman, visitors can create unique boxes for native birds to nest inside.

Sarah Mead, from Paradise Park, said: “We are looking forward to welcoming Aimee who is a popular artist with lots of experience of encouraging children to develop their artistic skills.

“The sessions are bound to be popular and early booking is advisable. This is an indoor activity, so will go ahead no matter what the half term weather throws at us!”

Three sessions will run on February 19 and full booking information and prices can be found at Paradise Park’s website.
