Dear UK Polar Network,
Just a gentle reminder that the Explore weekend at the Royal Geographic Society is only 5 DAYS AWAY!
This Saturday and Sunday (with a Friday night lecture for those who can make it), the RGS (London) is hosting lectures, workshops and exhibits to help organise your own field research project or expedition in a variety of environments and disciplines. Over 90 leading field scientists and explorers provide inspiration, contacts and advice over the course of this unique weekend. It is the perfect place to start something new or gain advice on an existing project from the experts themselves through both group discussions or one to one chats.
The basis for Explore isn't about what you have done, it is about what you will do.
I will be there alongside Laura Hobbs flying the UKPN flag high and mighty, as will numerous other UKPN members, so book up and show your faces! The RGS has kindly offered a discount to our ever expanding network, so be sure to mention that you are one of us when booking the weekend to get a weekend pass for just £55 (you even get your own name badge when you get there, because we care).
Details regarding going out for a UKPN meal/beer(s) to come shortly, at which of course every UKPN member is more than welcome, regardless of Explore attendance! So if you can get to London this weekend, or are based there already, make sure your crack up for this exciting opportunity.
Link is below for more info and hopefully we will see you there!
All the best,
Tom Perriment
UKPN E&O Coordinator
P.S. Don't forget the discount!
