AS we plump ourselves up on festive treats in the run-up to Christmas, spare a thought for our feathered friends and head down to the Ray Park Visitor Centre this Saturday for a free ‘build your own bird feeder’ workshop (10am-noon).

All recycled materials will be provided and you can also pick up some useful tips.
