Rishton Festival
On the 2nd of June Prospects’ Green Team and the charity manager Alison Silvers were in Rishton for a family fun day festival! We hosted a stall teaching people how to make their own bug hotels from upcycled cardboard and hay. The aim here was to show people how they can help wildlife by simply using waste materials from their house. After the participants had created their bug hotel, we had an arts and crafts section where they could decorate their bug hotel with whatever designs they liked. Our stall also had plenty of information leaflets and posters showcasing all the work Prospects does around the Hyndburn area.
The event was a huge success with 50 people making their own bug houses to take home with them which will have helped a few insects out.
Thanks to all our funders at GreenRecoveryChallengeFund and National Lottery Heritage Fund for supporting Prospects in buying all the supplies needed to make this a great day!
