Tutor: Graham Banwell
Graham has had a long and varied career in nature conservation, from reserve warden, campaigner, and ecologist to field teacher and lecturer. He is also a storyteller who goes into schools as a relevant character to teach about ecology, geology and palaeontology. Graham‘s key interests are mammals, birds and folklore. Though he has a degree in ecology and conservation, he is a keen believer in citizen science, that anyone can add to our knowledge of the natural world around us; not just professionals and specialists.
