Would anyone like to help organise the Midlands Festival of Nature 2026?
The Midlands Festival of Nature returns to Wicksteed Park next year, and this time we are aiming higher. More organisations, more hands-on activities, more creative programming and a proper celebration of the wildlife and wild places that make our region special.
To make it happen, I am looking for a small team of volunteers who would like to help with the organising. This is not a heavy commitment and you do not need any experience. You simply need enthusiasm, reliability and an interest in nature or community events.
There are a few areas where an extra pair of hands would make a real difference:
• contacting organisations and exhibitors
• helping manage the list of activities and stallholders
• supporting festival logistics in the lead-up
• helping on the day with setup, welcoming groups, or general coordination
You will not be dropped in at the deep end. Everything will be guided, structured and manageable, and you will be part of a friendly team working together to create something special for the town.
If you would like to be involved, even in a small way, please send me a message and we can have a chat.
Let’s make next year’s festival one to remember.
