SUMMARY:Galapagos Day 2022: PROTECTING SPECIES AND PREVENTING EXTINCTIONS
DESCRIPTION:Galapagos Day 2022\n\n\nJoin us on 20 October 2022 to hear from the experts working in the field to save species from tortoises to birds.   \nBiodiversity loss is one of the biggest environmental threats we face today and constitutes a global crisis that needs to be tackled with the same urgency as climate change. Galapagos is one of the most unique\, scientifically important biodiversity hotspots on Earth\, yet even here\, more than 80 species are now listed as either Critically Endangered or Endangered. Though the Islands may appear pristine\, they are threatened by climate change\, invasive species\, overfishing\, urbanisation and plastic pollution. \nGalapagos Conservation Trust is dedicated to the conservation of the Galapagos Islands. For over 25 years\, we have protected biodiversity\, restored habitats and saved endangered species from extinction by raising funds and awareness and by delivering ground-breaking\, impactful conservation projects. We are supporting partners to investigate wildlife health\, such as that of the iconic Galapagos giant tortoise; undertaking vital research to ensure the effective management of the new Hermandad Marine Reserve; and restoring habitats on islands such as Floreana\, which will be the first inhabited island in Galapagos to have rats and feral cats eradicated. \nOn Galapagos Day 2022\, we will explore the threats to biodiversity in Galapagos. We will hear directly from experts working at the cutting edge of science to save species ranging from giant tortoises to woodpecker finches. \nSpeakers will include:\nMonty Halls (host) \nDr Ainoa Nieto Claudín\, researcher\, a wildlife veterinarian and laboratory manager of the Charles Darwin Research Station. \nPaula Castaño\, wildlife veterinarian at Island Conservation.

SUMMARY:Birdwatching initiative and interactive performance at Greenwich Peninsula
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate the launch of the birdwatching logbook\, join performance artist Lou Doyle on Thursday\, 13th April\, in Peninsula Square for an interactive experience like no other. Where local birds inspire their human cohabitors to question the concept of nature in relation to city living\, The Hide is a playful opportunity to reconsider how we spend and direct our attention and to discover London’s most iconicentertainment destination; the O(twit)2 arena. \n\n\n\nLou Doyle is a multi-disciplinary artist based in the Design District at Greenwich Peninsula\, mentoredby the award-winning CLOD ensemble. Their work is interested in bewilderment\, gender deviance\,and absurdity. They like combining performance art practices with flaneur-adjacent habits to create theconditions for strangers to connect\, awkwardness to be encouraged\, and failure to be re-framed asartform. \n\n\n\nIllustration workshops will also be held on the Peninsula throughout the summer for residents\,students and the wider community\, with the first being held at Urban Village Fete on 14th May. \n\n\n\n‘Birds of Greenwich Peninsula’ (logbook)  is now on sale for £7.50 at Greenwich Peninsula Ecology Park andNOW Gallery.

SUMMARY:Dr Amir Khan: Doctor in the House
DESCRIPTION:Dr Amir Khan\, everyone’s favourite family doctor\, has announced his first-ever live dates starting on 18th May at London’s Bloomsbury Theatre. \n\n\n\nThe ‘Doctor In The House’ tour promises a fascinating\, heart-warming and frequently hilarious evening\, where Dr Amir will share stories about growing up in his British Asian family with six sisters\, ruled by Mama Khan. He will also talk about his life as a general practitioner with emotional and downright stories of patient encounters from the heartwarming to the bizarre\, painting a profoundly revealing portrait of healthcare in twenty-first-century Britain.  Years of underfunding and lack of staff have brought the NHS to a crisis point\, and Dr Amir will argue why it should be saved before it’s too late. \n\n\n\nHe will also detail his journey to becoming a doctor\, something he never wanted to do\, preferring to become a vet. But how many Asian vets do you see? None right. And how many Asian doctors do you see? Bloody loads. Influenced by his mother\, Amir applied to study medicine\, and the rest\, as they say\, is history… \n\n\n\nFinally\, Dr Amir will bring the doctor’s surgery to you\, taking questions from the audience and tackling seemingly personal and often challenging subjects in a relaxed and practical manner\, offering advice – from sleeping issues and headaches to joint pain and heart palpitations. This promises to be an entertaining\, informative\, and liberating evening with Dr Amir as he reminds us just how unique the NHS is. \n\n\n\n“I can’t wait to see you on my first U.K. tour. Putting this show together has been so much fun… there are many laughs and passionate support for our beloved NHS\, and you get to put your medical questions to me. But please don’t tell Mama Khan about it….” \n\n\n\n DR AMIR 2023

SUMMARY:Active Involvement in Research (AIRD) 2024: in person and online health conference
DESCRIPTION:Our annual Active Involvement in Research events bring together patients\, service users\, carers\, local people\, researchers\, health and care professionals\, and organisations in south London and beyond. \nThis year’s theme is ‘Improving health and care in south London\, shaping future research.’ \nFor several years\, Applied Research Collaboration (ARC) South London has researched how various types of health and social care might be improved and inequalities tackled. \nStaff\, public contributors\, the community\, and other partners have worked hard to successfully understand and achieve change for local people who experience a range of issues. This includes those with multiple conditions and those facing disadvantage and discrimination that affects their well-being. But many south Londoners are still at risk and face barriers to getting the treatment and support they need. \nThis year\, Active Involvement in Research will look at: \n\nWhat the focus of future work should be from April 2026 to March 2031\, if funding is available\nHow can we\, our community and other partners build on local strengths and direct limited resources to address current challenges in useful ways? This includes not duplicating what other research teams and organisations have done.\nHow can we further develop active involvement and recognise the value of lived experience in future research?\n\nThis is the second of two events. It will be held online on 18 November 2024\, following the in-person event on 13 November. \nYou are welcome to join us at either or both events to hear about thinking to date and share your views\, which will help to shape future research. Further information will follow\, but places are limited\, so booking early is advisable. \nAttendance is free\, and all are welcome. \nFind out more \n\nTo find out more about the event\, please email involvement coordinator savitri.hensman@kcl.ac.uk. You can also visit www.arc-sl.nihr.ac.uk\nPlease note: Payments will be made to public members who have agreed on a role.

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.
