During the day you will have the opportunity to think about what makes good fieldwork, before going out into the local area to engage in some activities which allow you to question the landscape.
You will also set up an urban fieldwork enquiry and try out some methods, before finishing off the day with a trouble-shooting Q&A session and information about how we can help your fieldwork delivery.
