Explore Scotland's Temperate Rainforests

This is a FREE event with the option to make a donation if you wish to.
The UK's rainforests are rare and very special habitats filled with fascinating wildlife. There are some particularly special examples of temperate rainforest remaining in Scotland. Found in the western fringes of the country, it's not always very easy to explore these magical places. So join us for a closer look at this fabulous habitat without any of the midges or ticks.
Meet the Speakers:
Dr Oliver Moore (Lichen and Bryophyte Specialist) – Oliver champions the plants and fungi that makes temperate rainforest so special and is happiest when he is exploring the rainforests of Scotland. Oliver works with numerous partner organisations and landowners to ensure that internationally important mosses, liverworts and lichens are at the heart of temperate rainforest management.
Erin Shott (Rainforest Advocacy Officer) – Raised in the outdoors with an enthusiasm for the environment, Erin has bounced around in specialties ranging from chemistry to invasive non-native species control and research. She currently uses her passion, experience, and gift of gab to influence policy impacting temperate rainforest in governments across the UK. 

At the end of the talk there will be an opportunity to ask questions. 

This talk will be recorded and a link to the recording will be sent within ten working days after the event  to all those who have registered.

This event is free of charge, but there is an option to make a donation if you wish to.

Many thanks
