Spent Friday at RGS-IBG “On the Sea Edge,” two inspiring, creative workshops. In between, went hunting for a sea edge in landlocked Birmingham. Closest we got was a pond at the Botanical Gardens, but it did the trick. Thanks to Katharine, Ashita & Carolina for a brilliant space. #RGSIBG2025

Great talks this evening focusing on ocean optimism from Emma Sheehan and @bd-stew.bsky.social hosted by OCT at the National Marine Aquarium. Amazing backdrop, although I did it get distracted by the fish #oceanoptimism

A digital flyer calling for North Devon surfers and ocean lovers to participate in a research survey on the North Devon World Surfing Reserve. Logos of the University of Plymouth, Falmouth University, and the North Devon World Surfing Reserve are at the top. The flyer invites people to share their thoughts on ocean governance, conservation, and community impact. A QR code is provided for easy access to the survey, along with a link. The lower half of the image features an illustration of a woman surfing on a red surfboard against blue waves.
