BBC Children in Need is such a fantastic cause so this year we have asked them how we can help.

So, to launch our Ice Rink for 2026 we have decided to offer a great skate for just £7 (ppp – per Pudsey participant) with ALL proceeds donated to Children in Need!! Enjoy our ice rink with your family for this amazing price to raise money for this amazing charity. There are exclusive skates available on Children in Need day (the Friday) and on the Saturday too.

Unfortunately, Wheelchairs and pushchairs are not permitted on the ice these sessions.

Children in Need loved our idea, they wanted to help us, so…
There will be an extra special star guest too! Can you guess who it will be? Clues?
He is very handsome.
He has big paws.
…and he is yellow…
It’s Pudsey Bear! Straight from BBC Children in Need HQ, Pudsey is very busy, on his special weekend, and we are so honoured to welcome him to our place.

That’s right it’s the same price for all tickets. We’d love you to join in the Pudsey Party – we’d love you to wear your Pudsey ears, Pudsey jumpers, anything yellow – or just join in the fun. Pudsey will be available for meets and greets, photo ops and to hear about your fundraising too. Oh, and if you can bring any loose change – pennies for Pudsey’s bucket, he’d love that too.

A whole family of fun skating friends can now be booked to coincide with your skate. For a helping hand (or flipper!), the best seat on the rink or just fabulous fun! Check them out below:
Push-a-long Penguins £5 each
Push-a-long Whale £5 each
Push-a-long Seal £5 each
Sit on Banana £10 each

PLEASE NOTE: You will need to arrive 15 minutes early to get booted up and booked in. Your Ice Skating session will last 45 minutes.

Pudsey will be at Whilton Locks both days.
