SUMMARY:The Borgen Project - Informational Event
DESCRIPTION:This informational event offers an introduction to The Borgen Project\, a non-partisan international organisation dedicated to reducing global poverty through policy advocacy\, public engagement\, and citizen-led action. The session is designed for students\, young professionals\, and members of the public who are interested in global development\, international affairs\, and the role of advocacy in shaping effective public policy. \n\n\nGlobal poverty remains one of the most pressing challenges of our time. Despite decades of progress\, conflict\, climate change\, economic instability\, and reductions in development assistance continue to threaten vulnerable populations worldwide. This event aims to provide clear\, accessible insight into how global poverty is addressed at the policy level\, and why political engagement remains a critical tool in achieving long-term\, sustainable solutions. \n\n\nDuring the session\, attendees will be introduced to the mission and activities of The Borgen Project\, with an overview of how the organisation engages with the public on issues related to global poverty and international development. The presentation will outline the relationship between policy decisions and development outcomes\, including how government priorities and public engagement can shape approaches to poverty reduction\, food security\, health\, and education. The focus will be on explaining these dynamics clearly and accessibly\, rather than advocating for a specific political position. \n\n\nThe event will also offer an overview of current global development issues\, including the impact of cuts to overseas development assistance\, the links between poverty and global security\, and the growing role of youth engagement in international policy discussions. Rather than focusing on abstract concepts\, the session will highlight real-world examples of how advocacy efforts have contributed to measurable policy outcomes in recent years. \n\n\nThis is an informational and discussion-focused event. It does not require prior knowledge of global development or policy\, and is intended to be accessible to anyone with an interest in international issues and social impact. There will be time for questions\, allowing participants to engage directly with the topics presented and to better understand how individual actions can contribute to broader policy change. \n\n\nAttendance is open to all\, and the event is suitable for those curious about global poverty\, advocacy\, and international development\, as well as for those considering further involvement in civic engagement\, NGOs\, or policy-related careers. While the session introduces opportunities for engagement\, its primary aim is to inform and raise awareness\, rather than to fundraise or promote a specific campaign. \n\n\nBy the end of the event\, participants will have a clearer understanding of how global poverty is addressed through policy\, the role organisations like The Borgen Project play in advocacy efforts\, and the ways in which informed citizens can participate meaningfully in shaping development outcomes.

SUMMARY:Magical Candlelit Christmas Concert 2025
DESCRIPTION:It has always been a star-studded evening. Last year\, we had readings from Lyse Doucet CM OBE\, award-winning Chief International Correspondent and Senior Presenter for BBC World News television and radio\, and our wonderful Patron\, the Lord Cope of Berkeley PC. Soprano Bibi Heal and Stephen Barlow entertained us with stunning solos. In 2023\, our Patron\, Dame Joanna Lumley\, joined us as a Guest Reader! \nWe are delighted that Thames Fanfare Brass will raise the roof again this year. What would a Christmas Concert be without a Trumpet Fanfare?! The angelic voices of the Queen’s Gate School Choirs will fill the church with gorgeous songs\, wonderful harp music by Lesley Magee\, and plenty of favourite Christmas Carols\, too! More Guests to be announced soon. \nWe look forward to welcoming you again in 2025 for the most magical start to the Festive Season. Every penny raised in profit will help Kids for Kids provide essentials to Darfur children in desperate need. The violence over the past 23 months has been far worse than anything we have experienced over the years. Darfur continues to face bitter conflict\, and the indirect effects of violence are almost worse: disease\, starvation and hunger in this century. We provide sacks of seed for planting and Kids’ Kitchen Kits for families with small children\, including pulses\, lentils\, powdered meat\, ground nuts and even fresh produce. Children have been deprived of protein for months. By attending our Candlelit Christmas Concert\, you will enable us to reach many more families. They need you\, need us\, right now. \nThe concert will begin at 7:00 p.m. and will be followed by Mulled Wine and Mince Pies (included in your ticket). It’s the perfect way to start Christmas Carols by Candlelight.

SUMMARY:South West Marine Fest Conference 2025
DESCRIPTION:Agenda \nSurfing identities in Newquay – evolutions and contemporary trajectories\n\n\nDr Marie Hale & Rachael Taylor\n\n\n\nThis presentation explores the evolving identity and environmental consciousness of Newquay’s surfing community\, examining surfers’ deepening ethical and spiritual connections with the ocean. Using Newquay as a case study\, researchers analyze how local surfers’ identities reflect a blend of tradition and modern environmental awareness\, influenced by a romantic view of nature and the ocean as blurred spaces between culture and nature. Guided by Bryce et al.’s framework—place-based identity\, experiences\, and capabilities—the study focuses on the surfers’ sense of belonging\, responsibility toward the ocean\, and their embodied environmental actions.​The research also considers the possibility of a World Surfing Reserve to protect the surf experience and its socio-economic and ecological contributions. Using the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as a lens\, the study aims to understand how Newquay’s surf culture intersects with broader environmental and social sustainability issues.\n\n\nAK Wildlife Cruises: Education\, Conservation\, Protection\n\n\nCam Molland\n\n\n\nAK Wildlife Cruises splits our goals into three key areas: education\, conservation and protection. Education through our wildlife-watching trips\, conservation by encouraging people to act\, and protection through the strategic deployment of the scientific data we collect. One thing that makes us fairly unique is that we combine guest experience with scientific research. Our boat (R/V Spirit of Our Seas) is a registered research and marine survey vessel and\, as we like to say\, we record everything from bumblebees to blue whales! When guests step aboard\, they become citizen scientists for the day\, and just be being there to help us collect vital data. We have been collecting cetacean sightings and occurrence data for 26 years\, giving us one of the longest boat-based survey datasets of this kind in the UK!\n\n\n\nAdvancing shark conservation through medical training and feeding-time\n\n\nMargot Morel1\n\n\n\nAbstract: In zoo settings\, routine veterinary care of sharks poses unique challenges due to their large size\, aquatic environment\, and natural aversion to handling. This presentation describes a conditioning program implemented at Budapest Zoo to train various shark species for essential medical procedures using feeding times as an opportunity for positive reinforcement. The primary objective was to reduce stress and improve compliance during medical interventions\, allowing for non-invasive health assessments\, wound care\, and therapeutic administration without the need for capture. Sharks were trained using a target-based system\, responding to specific cues that encouraged controlled movement and positioning. Over a six-month period\, sharks demonstrated increased tolerance to proximity and handling by trained staff\, enabling safer interactions and more frequent health checks. This program underscores the efficacy of behavioural training in enhancing shark welfare and care efficiency.\n\n\n\nIntro to Fathom Free and Ghost Gear\n\n\nLuke Bullus\n\n\n\nLuke is the Diving Officer and a trustee of the marine conservation charity Fathoms Free. Passionate about the marine environment\, Luke dedicates most of his free time to ghost gear recovery operations and ocean conservation. Fathoms Free is a group of experienced volunteer divers\, and skippers committed to protecting marine wildlife and the environment. They focus on removing ALDFG (abandoned\, lost\, or otherwise discarded fishing gear) and other marine debris from the coastal waters of Cornwall and Devon. ALDFG\, often referred to as “ghost gear”\, continues to “fish” by entangling\, trapping\, and killing wildlife indiscriminately. Since its inception in 2014\, Fathoms Free has led initiatives to remove these hazardous materials from the ocean\, preventing further damage to the marine environment. The charity also collaborates with and supports other organisations by using its boats and experienced skippers to assist with conservation efforts that contribute to a cleaner\, safer ocean.\n\n\n\nBanished Baijis to Vanishing Vaquita\n\n\nStu Collier\n\n\n\nStuart is co-founder of Operation Cetacean and Conservation Chat UK Ltd\, he is an experienced lecturer with a passion for sustainability and species conservation. This presentation is personal\, Stu first heard of the Baiji whilst learning about conservation at University\, the story of the Baiji would change his life and career direction- how could a planet full of dolphin lovers allow this to happen? How did we get it so wrong? And how is it still happening? The ‘white finned’ dolphin (Baiji) is thought to be the first dolphin to become extinct as a direct consequence of human activity. Unfortunately\, it is happening again with the Vaquita (the world’s most endangered marine mammal). This presentation will discuss the plight of both species\, the causes of their demise and look at what is being done to help the vaquita.\n\n\n\nBlue Meadows – Introducing Citizen Science to Seagrass Conservation in the SW\n\n\nMegan Ross\n\n\n\nSeagrass creates extraordinary ecosystems brimming with life\, capable of protecting coastlines from storms and acting as a vital carbon store. Classed as one of the most rapidly declining habitats across the globe\, this fragile ecosystem is most heavily affected by physical damage\, including anchoring and dredging\, and poor water quality. This talk will introduce Blue Meadows as a holistic approach to seagrass conservation\, encompassing protection methods\, restoration at scale and empowering local communities to connect with and take action for the protection of their local seagrass meadows. We will explore how people can actively contribute to seagrass conservation in the South West\, through Blue Meadows water user surveys.\n\n\n\nThe Seal Project\n\n\nSarah Greenslade\n\n\n\nSince 2017 I’ve been photographing seals around South Devon. From a one off seal encounter\, it didn’t take long for this to become way more than just a hobby. From my first BDMLR (British Divers Marine Life Rescue) Marine Mammal Medics call out\, it became clear seal identification was my ‘thing’\, and that’s a massive part of what The Seal Project is known for. We survey\, monitor and record all the seals we see around the South Devon coastline 365 days a year\, entirely as volunteers. We know many of these seals not only by their fur patterns\, but by their patterns of behaviour. Through all we do\, we know we have the best understanding of the seals and their welfare. Each and every sighting of a seal still amazes me. Some seals return to a pattern\, others have confounded us\, confused us and even reduced us to tears by their unexpected sightings! They are amazing creatures.\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe invite you to join our Annual Summer Conference in Brixham this October\, hosted by Conservation Chat UK LTD. \nAs specialists in organizing environmentally focused events\, we’re dedicated to creating gatherings that place the natural world at the forefront\, with a special focus on our local region\, the Southwest of England.​ \nThis event will feature an inspiring lineup of guest speakers involved in species conservation. If you share our passion for the environment\, don’t miss this opportunity! The day will be packed with insightful presentations\, engaging discussions\, and valuable networking\, tailored for conservation professionals\, students\, early-career researchers\, and anyone passionate about the natural world.​ \nLight refreshments will be provided. To keep ticket costs affordable\, we ask attendees to bring a packed lunch—and challenge you to make it plastic-free! \nThis will be an in-person event only\, with a full refund policy in place if the event must be cancelled due to COVID-19.

SUMMARY:The Pioneering Pensioners
DESCRIPTION:Mick Fowler and Victor Saunders are now officially pensioners\, with Saunders in his early 70s and Fowler in his late 60s. Despite being at a point in life when most people are hanging up their boots\, the pair are still as excited as ever for exploratory climbing. \nIn 2024\, the pair travelled to the Pakistani Karakoram where\, over seven days\, they made the first ascent of the spectacular Yawash Sar (6258m)\, a beautiful peak sometimes referred to as “the Matterhorn of the Khunjerab.” \nEven more impressively\, Fowler\, a cancer survivor\, made the climb (which included a night spent hanging from the side of the mountain in their harnesses) while wearing a colostomy bag. \nFor one night only\, they join us at the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) to discuss their latest climb\, their enduring partnerhsip and their future plans (because they aren’t stopping yet!)

Best known for his distinctive running style and his many athletic achievements and records – up to this date Zátopek remains the only runner to win the 5\,000m\, the 10\,000m and the marathon at the same Olympic Games\, which he obtained in Helsinki in 1952. Besides his athletic accomplishments\, Zátopek received international acclaim for his vocal public condemnation of the 1968 Russian invasion of Czechoslovakia which led to his denouncement by the Czechoslovak communist government and a controlled detention. \nThere are many books and films about Zátopek’s life and sport achievements\, including British author Richard Askwith’s biography Today We Die a Little: The Rise and Fall of Emil Zatopek\, Olympic Legend. \nIn 2013 Runner’s World Magazine named Zátopek the ‚Greatest Runner of All Time‘. \n
