Rye Meads is delighted to be part of a new scheme for families to go out and explore the natural world!
Rye Meads is part of Discover Explore!
Discover Explore is an exploration game set in the Lee Valley that encourages families and young people to get outdoors and uncover the stories and history of different locations through a series of daring missions.
Would-be explorers create an account online at www.discoverexplore.co.uk then use the website to find missions in exciting locations. Explorers and their families then head off on adventures at locations across the Lee Valley to experience the best of the area’s historic, industrial and natural heritage. Explorers can earn rewards in the form of badges by correctly answering questions about the missions online. There’s a whole range of badges to aim for.
The game focuses on several key locations across the Lee Valley, some well- known and others less familiar, so that families can explore the wide range of activities on offer. Discover Explore has been working closely with partner organisations to develop these exciting missions across the Lee Valley. To find more information, choose your missions and get your adventure started please visit www.discoverexplore.co.uk

Discover Explore is part of Discovering Places, the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad Campaign to inspire people in the UK to discover their local built, historic and natural environments.
