Join us for star gazing with astronomer, Steve Szwajkun and the team from the Shropshire Astronomical Society who will be setting up their telescopes at Whixall Moss. Great for all those who want to learn more about the stars and planets above.

Please feel free to bring your own telescopes, garden/camping chairs, and torches (red light preferred) if you wish, although none are essential. There will be refreshments available, but feel free to bring your own. There are parking spaces available at the NNR Base. There are on-site toilets, as well as a disabled access toilet and parking spaces.

The event is free to attend, but please book with Ellie Williams by the email address and phone number provided above.
