Some of the feedback from 2024 Open Day...
"Thank you for putting together such an interesting and informative day, in a beautiful setting."
​
"There was serious science delivered in an approachable way by enthusiastic and knowledgeable presenters."
​
"All the subjects had exhibits, which always brings a subject alive, and some of the exhibits were themselves ‘alive’. The bird ringing demonstration was a particular highlight. But in each case there was a ‘who knew’ that bit of knowledge."
​
"I thoroughly enjoyed every talk. Each one was extremely interesting and I found myself wanting to learn more about every topic covered."
​
"Thank you once again for a truly stimulating event. I came away with some snippets and facts that I was able to relay to my family when I got home and I read out the list of moth species that I had been shown and taken a note of!"
