This week is the British Hedgehog Preservation Society's 'Hedgehog Awareness Week' and we like to do our little bit to promote their brilliant work looking after these wonderful little creatures whose numbers are dwindling rapidly......mainly due to human activity. We are holding a Hedgehog Awareness afternoon from 2pm to 4pm on Saturday, May 9th with Hedgehog crafts, colourings and quizzes. Money raised from our hedgehog crafts will go to the British Hedgehog Preservation Society.

We hope you can join us.....

A few new creatures have arrived in the park recently (others can be found hiding in the woods) ....... with many thanks to our duck food purchasers who help to provide those little extras that make Kingsbury Water Park a great place to visit! 😁
Also, thanks to the Café & Information Centre for selling the duck food for us.😁
The first creature can be found by the Café.

I see the council, at last, have painted double yellow lines on Old Kingsbury Road (the road into the Water Park at the Mill end). Unfortunately there appears to be bays left to park (defeats the object somewhat). Also, someone has illegally filled in some of these bays with their own paint. I believe this is a criminal offence

Annual Litter Pick 2026
Our litter pick on Sunday delivered the usual odd assortment of rubbish deposited following the floods from earlier in the year. Many thanks to everyone who helped and a special thank you to our two youngest helpers (not pictured here) and their mum who did an absolutely brilliant job collecting litter in the park. You are stars!

ℹ️Update: Bird flu and dogs on leads at Kingsbury Water Park.

We’re pleased to share that, following several weeks with no new cases of bird flu identified on site, restrictions at Kingsbury Water Park have now been lifted and we’ve returned to business as usual.

This means dogs no longer need to be kept on leads at all times across the park.

However, as we're now in bird nesting season, we kindly ask all dog owners to remain mindful of ground nesting birds. Many species nest directly on the ground in areas such as meadows, lakesides, woodlands and hedgerows. These birds are particularly vulnerable, and can be easily disturbed, which may cause them to abandon their nests or suffer stress or injury.

To help protect our wildlife, we ask that dogs are kept on leads in these sensitive areas.

Dogs should always be under close control in our park.

Thank you for helping us to look after our park and the wildlife that calls it home. 🐦
