Nature at home and activities on site
We want you to have a wonderful visit to Appley, but its just a frame, so here’s what else you can do. We have produced a beautiful colouring sheet and an I-spy sheet suitable for both adults and children.
Our Bug Bunch encourages young rangers to visit all our sites.
We have produced a number of brochures encouraging you to visit the wider area on foot or by bike, and maybe take in another Gift to Nature site too.
It is our aim to make our sites as accessible as possible. Working with Sight for Wight we have produced an audio/video guide to Appley Frame. Hello Everyone is actually a very useful and interesting tool whether or not your sight is impaired. We have also written an Access Statement for this site.

Walking and Cycling
Our Walking and Cycling in the Ryde Area leaflet has two trails that visit Appley close to the frame – the easy peasy ‘Sea the Sands’ and the easy rated ‘Forts ‘n’ Coast’.

Hello Everyone

It will describe the entrance, the size of the area, where to find further information or help and any major obstacles or features. Information has been produced by visually impaired people ensuring it is useful and accurate.
