Nature Matters 2022
Survive | Thrive | Revive
The 2022 Meeting of New Networks for Nature at St Peter’s School, York, due to be held from the 3rd - 5th November 2022, had to be cancelled due to proposed rail strikes over that weekend.
We managed to host an online panel discussion, which you can replay here.

Replay Our Panel Discussion from November 4th
On Friday November 4th we held a wonderful panel discussion featuring five leading voices from the UK conservation sector, addressing the unacceptably low political priority of critical environmental issues and legislative changes posing an imminent threat to wildlife and ecosystems across the country. Our panelists were Emma Marsh (RSPB); Kaye Brennan (The Wildlife Trusts); Paul Powlesland (barrister and founder of Lawyers for Nature); Jake Fiennes (land manager and conservationist) and Lucy Lapwing (influencer and wildlife presenter).
You can watch the replay on our YouTube channel.
