May 7 @ 19:00 - 21:00
We will be holding our sixth evening of the Sustainability Shorts lecture series in the centre of Bath at the Percy Community Centre in New King Street.
The evening is designed to be engaging, snappy and entertaining, with six speakers talking for ten minutes each on their chosen sustainability subject. There will be five minutes for Q&A after each speaker, then it’s on to the next! You are guaranteed to hear something new and something you can work with from our varied speakers.
Our six speakers are as follows:
Sheila Gundry. Head of Operations and Charlcombe Road Toad Patrol volunteer
We are really fortunate to have a thriving toad population at Charlcombe Lane in Bath. Sheila Gundry, Head of Operations at wildlife charity Froglife and local environmentalist, will explore the vital role of toads and other amphibians for healthy ecosystems, discuss the contribution of volunteers from Bath Toad Rescue, and compare challenges and successes with the national picture.
