Next weekend, Saturday May 26th and Sunday May 27th, Gift to Nature are holding two very special fundraising events, The Butterfly Ball and The Big Kite Picnic.
You may not realise it, but Gift to Nature As are a charity with the really big task of keeping beautiful sites around the Isle of Wight open and well managed.
Your support needed
As a charity they really do need your help. Fundraising events such as these can be time-consuming and expensive to organise, but are a great way of the charity being able to showcase their work and spread awareness.
If you do just one thing to help the charity this year, please make it supporting one of these events.
The Butterfly Ball
Just a stone’s throw from the site of the legendary 1970 Isle of Wight festival, Gift to Nature will be holding a very special event at the iconic Golden Hill Country Park in Freshwater.
The Butterfly Ball will be an outdoor music event with a difference, join our Headline act Tensheds and a host of supporting artists in this beautiful, countryside setting. Children, and big kids alike, will be able to spot the butterfly among the trees. Or simply boogie on down, and listen to the tons of Tensheds and friends as the sun sets over these iconic views.
Tensheds and friends
Tensheds is a classically trained rock pianist and Ventnor Fringe favourite. Support comes from, The Moonshiners, Company B, Second Time Around and Between the Boots and Me.
Licensed Bar and hot food available throughout the event and accompanied children welcome. You are welcome to bring your own picnic and fancy dress optional, but encouraged.
There will be storytelling and a nature trail to keep the little ones occupied and well behaved dogs on a lead are also welcome.
