About the event

As part of National Nestbox Week, come and make a nestbox to encourage more birds to live in your garden and help us make a wilder Suffolk. We’ll have everything you need to make your nestbox and we’ll help guide you through the process. 

This event is suitable for everyone; families and adults welcome.No booking necessary, £10 per nest box kit.

If you prefer, you can collect a nestbox kit and take it away to make at home. We will supply details of how to make, site and maintain your nest box as well as other information to help you make your outdoor space more wildlife friendly.

We’d love to know where you put your nestbox and who used it. Share a photo and add to our interactive map.
