A spokesperson said: "The Bay helps people’s wellbeing by connecting them with nature, and in turn helping nature by connecting it with people."

The new hub in the Arndale will be their centre of operations in Morecambe and home to regular wellbeing sessions and events as well as being open a couple of days a week as a warm space. 

People are welcome to pop in to learn a bit more about what’s going on, about the wonderful nature found in Morecambe Bay and about how to get involved. 

On Friday February 17 from 1pm to 3pm you can also pop in and make a lantern ready for the Baylight festival.
