Build a bug hotel this Father’s Day

Community news on behalf of Habitats & Heritage | 7 June 2024

On Sunday 16 June, residents of all ages are invited to join Habitats & Heritage in crafting a unique bug hotel as part of their Father's Fun Day.

Bug hotels help attract bees, butterflies and other insects to your garden and is hugely beneficial to the local environment. 

In addition to creating a bug hotel, you’ll have the chance to participate in a scavenger hunt in the gardens chapel on Richmond Hill, where you can collect a range of interesting materials to furnish your bug hotel. There will also be a mini-beast talk to tell you more about the insects living among us.

Event details:

  • Date: Sunday 16 June
  • Time: 10.30am to 12 noon, 12.30 to 2pm and 2.30 to 4pm
  • Location: Grove Gardens Chapel, Richmond Old Cemetery, Lower Grove Road, Richmond, TW10 6HP
  • Prices: £20 for one dad and two children, £5 for additional adult or child.
