Watching this last night at the Pheonix Cinema & Art Centre moved me (and the stranger next to me) to tears.
I cannot recommend watching this enough - powerful documentary with Attenborough
I will be waiting to see the outcomes of the June UN Ocean Conference in a few weeks!

Highly recommend visiting the International Centre for Life 🧬
Fab examples of inclusive, creative & immersive science engagement. They have put a lot of work into making it accessible.
Highlights: Relaxed Sunday, planetarium, fossil show (included shadow puppets!), and hands-on experiments.

I'm so proud to announce my most ambitious pin to date: a miniature guide to the trees of Britain (and lots of Europe)!

For over 25 years, science and discovery centres have been at the heart of inspiring millions of people to explore, question, and be part of UK science and technology.
But they're seriously under threat… 1/3
This was a truly collaborative effort spanning multiple labs and institutions….many hands picking the Asgard fruit. Recognising Indigenous knowledge and culture from #SharkBay in the naming of novel organism. Brief summary and shout out to @scarlettlw.bsky.social for some cool stromatolite art...
