  • I just had to email you to thank you all for such a truly fabulous day. The staff were friendly, enthusiastic and perfectly prepared for all the activities. The children learnt a huge amount and could not stop talking about it on the way home - 'best trip ever' was repeatedly heard!

  • Screwfix had a fantastic day at Carymoor Environmental Centre refining our sustainability plans. It’s an inspirational location combining the realities of human-generated waste with the optimism of flourishing local nature. Early on in Screwfix’s journey in becoming a more sustainable business, we visited Carymoor and it contributed to the acceleration of our work and commitments in this area. It was great to be back to revitalise and develop our strategy further. We would highly recommend this local reserve to get away from the day to day of work and focus on nature, communities and the environment.
