The Babylon Gallery on Ely Riverside will host a family wildplay event next Wednesday, August 9.

The sessions will run from 10-11am and then at 11-12pm and will include table-top pond dipping and mini-beast hunting as well as arts and crafts.

The event, organised by the Ely and Littleport Time Credit partnership, is split into two sessions aimed at children aged five to 11.

Admission costs £2 per child or two time credit notes per family or group. To book, email office@babylonarts.org.uk

A spokesman said: “Cambridgeshire Time Credits is funded by Cambridgeshire County Council and the CHS Group working in partnership with Spice a Social Enterprise.

“Time credits are a community currency where anyone can volunteer with organisations involved in the Time Credit Network and earn one time credit for each hour they give.

“Once earned, time credits can then be spent at events or cultural venues, entertainment and leisure activities.”

Organisations currently signed up to the scheme are Littleport & Ely Timebank, Babylon Arts, Pos+Ability and Ely Young People.
