Visitors to the free event at the Grant Museum of Zoology, Fossil Forage, will be able to work alongside scientists and be the first people to sieve through real fossil-rich sediment deposited in London over 50 million years ago and take home the artefacts they find. Around this time in London's history the city took a quick dip back under the sea. With sharks and crocodiles patrolling overhead, it was a very different place, but it was also the perfect place for fossils to form.

At the hands-on museum, visitors will also get the opportunity to explore a range of other fascinating fossils in a series of activities running throughout the day. This includes taking a trip through 400 million years of the Earth's history to see a mammoth's tusk, a sabre-tooth tiger's skull and pterodactyl fossils.
