    did you pour water over the top of your VFT? These need to be bottom watered — actually they prefer to sit in a little tray of water (distilled or rainwater ONLY) to stay consistently moist. If you poured watered onto/into the traps that could have triggered them to close up. also be sure to give this the absolute briiiightest light you can. If you don’t have a south facing window, i’d pop it under a good grow light

      As long as they aren’t digesting anything inside, the traps will open back up again on their own fairly soon. If they are eating/digesting something they’ll take longer to open but will still open on their own.

    I don’t know what’s the weather is like since you said you’re in Wales, but in the US it is currently the season where flytraps will start to go dormant, so make sure you can give it dormancy, that is vital to the longevity of your plant.
