Derby's Springwatch Festival: Going Wild in Osmaston Park

Celebrating Derby's status as a BBC Breathing Places City and "Do One Thing" for Derbyshire and East Staffordshire's wildlife...

More than 2,500 people turned out for the free environmental day at Osmaston Park in Derby on Sunday 24th June.

"Do one thing..."

The park came alive as BBC Breathing Places and WildDerby encouraged festival-goers to 'Do One Thing' for local wildlife.

This celebration of the city’s wildlife gave visitors the opportunity to take part in interactive activities with local wildlife groups and get their hands dirty!

Arena acts included Derwent Brass Band, the Boogie Beebies Springwatch dancers and birds of prey displays. Spilling out from the central arena was a variety of local groups all running fantastic, hands-on activities, including Cycle Derby, Waste Management, Hogs Haven, RSPB, Derby Pond Wardens, Mid-Derbyshire Badger Group, Sinfin Together, Derby and Sandiacre Canal Society and many, many more.

In the BBC Hub there was the chance to take make Bug Bling at the Springwatch Garden Party, find out all about new BBC show Saving Planet Earth and become a CBBC Tracker or a Cbeebies Spotter. Also there was the Cbeebies character Jelly and her sidekick Dan!
