A Walking with Wildlife event is set to take place on Sunday 20 May at Chapelton as part of the Wellbeing Week Festival.
It will offer children and adults the chance to discover the amazing wildlife that hides among Chapelton’s surrounding countryside.
Join Aberdeenshire Council countryside ranger Helen Young for a mini beast scavenger hunt (under 12s) from 11am to 12.30pm, starting from the new woodland planting at Nether Cairnhill, on your left as you enter Chapelton. Helen will also be leading a wildlife wander for adults from 1pm to 3.30pm. Meet at the Causey Mounth at the entrance to Chapelton. Both events are free.
To register your place or find out more information, visit the Chapelton Facebook page or email CCIC_Admin@chapeltonlife.co.uk
The Bettridge Centre in Newtonhill is also holding an event as part of the Wellbeing Festival – a free Come and Try day for all ages. They are just finalising the details but you should be able to try your hand at a range of activities including yoga and meditation, archery, line dancing, netball and walking netball – to mention but a few!
