Family wildlife park Bowland Wild Boar Park is raising awareness for men’s mental health this Father’s Day.

This Father’s Day, Bowland Wild Boar Park is offering more than just a day out — it’s a chance to raise awareness for an important cause

On Sunday, June 15th, all dads will receive free entry to the park, and families can book a table at Bowland Tipis to enjoy a delicious hog roast and a complimentary drink. It’s set to be a memorable day for families and a meaningful one for the community. Tickets are available online now.

Located on the outskirts of Preston, Bowland Wild Boar Park is a much-loved family destination, home to a wide variety of farm and wild animals. The park also boasts a large adventure playground, tractor and barrel rides, and offers access to the stunning landscapes of the Forest of Bowland — an ideal escape for families with children.

Adding to the day’s festivities, the team from Lancashire Mind will be onsite hosting a fun-filled fundraiser. Activities will include face painting, a higher-or-lower game, and an exciting raffle — with all proceeds going toward local mental health initiatives.

Neil McDonald, Director of Bowland Wild Boar Park, said:

“We’re proud to be partnering with the brilliant team at Lancashire Mind to raise awareness for men’s mental health. It’s a cause that matters deeply to us, and Father’s Day is a fitting time to shine a light on it.”

Andrea Pollard, Fundraising Lead at Lancashire Mind, added:

“We’re really looking forward to joining the team at Wild Boar Park. It’s a fantastic opportunity to connect with families, raise vital funds, and support those in our community who may need help.”

Join us for a day of fun, food, family — and making a real difference.
