INSECT enthusiasts are being invited to celebrate a national week in aid of the creatures at Warrington Museum and Art Gallery.

Museum-goers can take part in an insect trail between June 17 and 24.

Visitors can discover many fascinating insects in the museum's natural history collections including butterflies, moths, house-flies and many more exotic species.

The first 100 through the door will receive a free goody bag on Saturday 17 and 24, and visitors can also become an insect investigator and handle insect specimens.

All events are free to attend. Contact the museum on 442733 for details.
