A huge dose of positivity, inspiration and energy in the form of #RGSExplore2024 - what a weekend! My head is bursting with new thoughts and ideas and renewed motivation. There are so many great people out there making amazing things happen x Royal Geographical Society (with IBG)


Team photos from each of the two days of the #RGSExplore2024 symposium Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) that I had the honour to chair this year. Thanks for sharing them š· Spike Reid



Filming at the National Oceanography Centre in Southampton about the research work of The 'Before It's Gone' Expedition for broadcast on the BBC š¤coming soon!


If you think it's turning chilly here, take a look at our film on BBC The One Show. We're with felicity_aston MBE and her all-women team as they ski across the high arctic in terrible conditions, sampling the snow for microplastics. Thanks Julie Moniere who filmed it.



Lovely to be at the launch of the next expedition by Mark Evans at Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) - made extra special by the presence of the Prince of Wales and the Crown Prince of Oman. The expedition sets off in January and we can follow along here: jewelofarabiaexpedition.com



What an impressive expedition and a moving film! Extreme adventure at the edge of endurance collecting evidence on climate change. #womeninSTEM #ClimateEmergency #polar #science Screenhouse Productions

Itās not often Iām asked to give a āfireside chatā around an actual fire but this afternoon Iām lucky enough to be speaking in this wonderful converted barn with its impressive fireplace (and a roaring fire) at Jardin D'Ćve for Puratos Groupā¦
