After the Baby’s surprise appearance in Rochdale during September 2024, school children will visit the Baby to tell her about their hopes and plans for looking after nature in the borough in the future.
The Baby will listen, and one month later, the Wild Wanders trail, taking place at Hollingworth Country Park 24-27 October, will offer a chance for audiences to experience an illuminated woodland trail at night…and to listen to what the Baby has to say, inspired by the words of Rochdale’s young people who will be the guardians of the environment in which she will grow up.
Inviting children to tell us what they wish for the Baby’s (and their own) future is a radical approach to empowering Rochdale’s children to build a better world.
