Redbridge Creates Presents… Disney’s Finding Nemo Jr.


Disney’s Finding Nemo JR. is a 60-minute musical adaptation of the beloved 2003 Pixar movie Finding Nemo, with new music by award-winning songwriting team Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez. Marlin, an anxious and over-protective clownfish, lives in the Great Barrier Reef with his kid Nemo, who longs to explore the world beyond their anemone home. But when Nemo is captured and taken to Sydney, Marlin faces his fears and sets off on an epic adventure across the ocean. With the help of lovable characters such as optimistic Dory, laid-back sea turtle Crush, and the supportive Tank Gang, Marlin and Nemo both overcome challenges on their journey to find each other and themselves.


Featuring memorable songs such as “Just Keep Swimming,” “Fish Are Friends Not Food,” and “Go With the Flow,” Finding Nemo JR. brings a vibrant underwater world to life on stage in a story full of family, friendship, and adventure.

Join Vision Redbridge Culture & Leisure for Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month.

Swimming is the perfect way to keep fit but it’s also thought that swimming is a particularly good way to relax your body, soothe your mind and reduce anxiety.

Join us on a gentle stroll through the forest as we search for the signs of autumn. Leaves changing colour, muddy puddles appearing and toadstools popping up are all signs of the changing seasons! We will stop plenty of times to take in all of the sights, sounds and smells of the forest. 

This guided walk will take around 90 minutes at a gentle pace. We will use the main paths, but also some smaller paths to see some of the features that are deeper into the forest. Please wear sturdy shoes/boots as these paths are likely to be uneven and muddy. If you have any access requirements please get in touch and we will do our best to chose a route that is suitable.

This walk is suitable for the whole family, so why not pop your wellies on and explore the forest this autumn.

Hainault Forest has a no foraging policy so we will not be collecting any fungi on this walk or giving advice on edible species.
