Children go FREE at The New Forest Centre, Lyndhurst

As a result of the new association with the New Forest National Park Authority, The New Forest Centre is now able to help families and young people to enjoy the gallery displays by making entry for under 16s completely free.

Ednyfed Hudson-Davies, Chairman of the Ninth Centenary Trust, which owns and runs The New Forest Centre, said; “It’s a tremendous step forward for the Centre. We’re delighted that tomorrow’s guardians of the Forest can come in and enjoy learning about the Forest’s unique and special qualities for free”.

Clive Chatters, Chairman of the New Forest National Park Authority, said: ‘Free entry for children is one of the most important benefits of our support for the New Forest Centre. We hope that many young people will take advantage of the opportunity to learn about the New Forest and its National Park.’

Displays at the New Forest Centre, whilst appealing to all ages, are especially targeted at young people. The Beaulieu Road pony sales and a traditional cob cottage are just two of the ‘life size’ reconstructions on show, and there are plenty of quiz sheets and trails to complete, not to mention dressing-up costumes to try on and touch-screen interactives to engage with.

So whether you’re from around these parts or here on holiday, find a couple of hours to come and try out The New Forest Centre and discover what’s on your door step.
