Speaking at the Peaks and City Takeover
Later this month I’m venturing North and speaking in Sheffield as part of the Peaks and City Takeover weekend (March 20-22nd).
I feel pretty honored to be invited, but I couldn’t say no because they called me ‘awesome’ and a ‘famed speaker’ on Twitter. Flattery gets you everywhere!
But in all seriousness, the organizers – Nature Network Sheffield – have an inspiring vision to bring together all of the nature-related societies in Sheffield and eventually expand the network across the UK. It’s a brilliant idea, and something I’m very keen to support.
Don’t worry, it’s not just me talking, they have a whole weekend of events including:
- A screening of ‘Project Wild Thing‘.
- Conservation tasks in the City.
- Workshops on all sorts of themes.
- Socials (you know what students are like!)
- Fieldtrip to Blacka Moor Nature Reserve
Full Programme and Tickets
The whole weekend programme is online here. Tickets are available here (or just for the film, here).
Please share this with anyone that might be interested, and see you in Sheffield!
