Wow, decided to visit the arboretum for a couple of hours, really needed the day, lots to see over a very large area.
Recomend taking the land train for £6 per person, it's a 50 minute ride giving lots of info about the memorials on the way.
Didn't cover half of it so will definitely be returning very soon.

We spent 61/2 hours walking around this extensive site. With over 300 memorials for those who have served whether in the armed forces or civvy street. Many moving tributes and wonderful memorials of high quality in young woodland. The extra level of nature at this site set within lakes and rivers gives and extra dimension. We saw Tree Creepers. a kingfisher, Long Tailed TIts, Goosander, Great Crested Grebe, Little Grebe, Jay, Fieldfare, wren and more without evne trying. Allow plenty of time for your visit. The indoor displays describe the site beautifully with a lovely cafe and shop. Amongst the top attractions in the United Kingdom I would say.

I visited the arboretum when I was close to the area with my wife for the weekend.
I have spent a lot of time visiting memorials as part of my job and this is one of the best that I have visited all around the world.
I think that this is a must visit place for anybody.

This was our second time but the first for our friends. We were greeted by a volunteer with tremendous knowledge and enthusiasm- this was to be the case with all of the volunteers we met on the site. Our time was short and one of our party has mobility issues so we decided to opt for the guided buggy ride. Mike our guide was a fount of knowledge and stories . He kept us informed and entertained for longer than the time allocated because there were no further bookings following.
This place is tremendously moving not only for the military memorials but a wide range of civilian monuments. I would urge all ages to make the time to visit this very special place at least once. We shall certainly return and appreciate all of the work that is ongoing by an army of very dedicated people . We owe them to appreciate their efforts

We visited the Illuminated Arboretum Night and was blown away with the event.
Trying in several memorials and having areas to remember loved ones, was just so in keeping and thoughtful, it made our visit part of people's future visits.
The Forces Memorial at night, with skyreaching lights and atmospheric music was a point when I may have had dust in my eyes. Far more moving lit like this than I've ever seen in the day.
Thanks to staff, vols et all. Great night.

In December 2022, Sue Preston said about Lichfield Garrick Theatre & Studio
Our annual family trip to the panto (11 of us) The theatre was not as full as usual and I can only put that down to the cost of living and how expensive it has become to visit the theatre since the pandemic ( no cheaper family tickets this year) , even though the cast is smaller. However we loved it as much as ever. Hope I can still afford to take everyone next year, depends if my pension holds out.

Panto this year was outstanding as usual. Panto dame Sam Rabone & his cast were fantastic! The comedy is a class all on its own. Lovely intimate theatre that makes you feel involved and more atmospheric than big theatres that overcharge. Fantastic all round. X
