Exmoor Society Spring Conference

We are now taking bookings for our spring conference which will be hosted at St Lukes Church, Simonsbath on Friday 19th May.

This year’s theme is ‘All things bright and beautiful’ and is a celebration of nature with a morning of talks starting at 9.30am followed by an afternoon of walks.

Speakers include the eminent soil ecologist Professor Karl Ritz and BBC Wildlife filmmaker Alastair Fothergill OBE who is series producer of most of David Attenborough’s nature documentaries such as the Wild Isles series, Blue Planet, Life in the Freezer and Plant Earth.

Tickets will be £25 for members and £30 for non-members and will include refreshments and a light lunch with the opportunity to network with speakers and other delegates.

We are hugely grateful to the National Archives Community Engagement programme, whose funding enabled us to commission eight display cases for the safe and professional presentation of archival material.
