Local Services
Bury St Edmunds Heritage Ticket – this will give you free entry to Moyse’s Hall Museum in Bury St Edmunds and to West Stow Anglo Saxon Village and Museum, as well as free parking at West Stow and at Nowton Park.
Suffolk Wildlife Trust – Although technically the Trust’s sites are free to enjoy, your membership will help to maintain the reserves and protect local wildlife. You get a lovely explorer pack when you sign up, with regular newsletters and activities for children. Our favourite local sites are Lackford Lakes, Bradfield Woods, Knettishall Heath and Redgrave and Lopham Fen. They often have events on during the school holidays and at weekends for families.
RSPB – We mostly use our membership at Minsmere and at Lakenheath Fen - the amount you donate is up to you. The reserves always have lots going on for children, and their education departments run some fantastic events.
The National Trust – There are so many available NT locations in East Anglia, with our own Ickworth Park on our doorstep, plus some wonderful properties nearby, including Flatford Mill, Wicken Fen, Oxborough Hall, Melford Hall, Wimpole Estate and Anglesey Abbey, and all of them have something to offer families.
