Stargazing at Beaudesert

Nothing beats looking upwards at the night sky to see velvety blackness, with twinkling constellations as far as the eye can see.

CPRE Staffordshire, the countryside charity, together with the Cannock Chase AONB Partnership, held its inaugural stargazing night in February 2023 to share the wonders of the night sky with children from Beavers, Scouts and Brownies.

Professional astronomers from Keele University’s Observatory brought their telescopes to allow children to enjoy great views of the night sky. They explained what we can see in the night sky, both with and without a telescope.

Following the success of last year’s event, the stargazing night will return in February 2025, this time at the Wolseley Centre. Please fill in this form if you are interested in attending with your Scouting or Guiding unit. The event is primarily aimed at children of Brownies or Cubs age.
