In March 2022, Petworth writer and campaigner, Roger Morgan-Grenville, set off from Lymington on a 55 day, 1,000 mile solo walk to Cape Wrath in northern Scotland, to judge for himself the state of nature in his homeland.

His aim was to match the pace at which the oak leaves emerge, roughly 20 miles north each day.
Fighting illness, blizzards and his own ageing body, he visits every main habitat between Lymington and Cape Wrath in an epic eight-week adventure, encountering, over and over again, the kindness of strangers and the inspiring efforts of those fighting heroically for nature. With surprising conclusions throughout, what unfolds is both life-affirming and life-changing.
His talk will inform, amuse and hopefully inspire.
Ticket price includes a glass of wine or a soft drink and nibbles.
The time: 7.30pm on Tuesday 25th March 2025.
