An event at the Wetland Centre in Barnes is providing families with the opportunity to find out more about the value of our wetlands.

Open every evening until the 9th of January, Illuminature is an outdoor experience featuring a magical light trail amongst trees and ponds. 

There are several interactive sculptures as well as a display of giant wetland critters and creepy crawlies.

Wetlands are the most effective carbon sinks on the planet, locking away huge amounts of carbon to mitigate climate change.
