What is a ‘Nature Centre’?
Definition
The term refers to a protected, natural area, an area where centres offer discovery through interaction. The staff are both welcoming and passionate, eager to share their knowledge and skills. They offer guided visits, workshops and games, observation of local flora and fauna on nature walks, exhibitions and displays … you can enjoy the privileged position of getting really close to nature, in the company of women and men who teach you about the history of the locality.
Nature Centres offer a multitude of ways to be in close contact with (and always respectful of) the flora and fauna of our county.
