Parks events and activities
Weather
Has more snow and ice has been predicted? Hopefully, it will miss us out this time. Just a reminder when you're out and around Wolverhampton's Great Outdoors; to stay safe, warm and dry in the snow and please stay away from frozen lakes, ponds, canals and other open water. The thaw can bring its own problems, as the ice may appear frozen.
