Join Chris Packham, Patrick Barkham and young Norfolk voices for a hopeful, action-focused conversation about the future of Norfolk's nature
About this Event

Naturalist Chris Packham joins author and NWT President, Patrick Barkham for a lively discussion about the future of Norfolk’s nature - and the role we can all play in shaping it. As part of Norfolk Wildlife Trust’s Centenary programme, this special event brings together two of the UK’s leading environmental voices to explore the ideas, questions and ambitions of young people from across Norfolk.

Expect a conversation centred around possibility and rooted in hope: from 100 years of restoring nature in Norfolk and the solutions already working to the actions communities can take and the power of collective effort. Be part of the conversation, fuelled by stories from the front line of conservation, and leave full to the brim with wild inspiration as we continue on our journey towards a wilder Norfolk for everyone.

There will be a book signing after the event with books available to purchase.
