SPRINGWATCH TV presenter Megan McCubbin inspired and engaged during a talk in Wimborne.

Megan addressed around 300 people at the Queen Elizabeth School during an event entitled You, Me & Nature, part of the opening weekend of the 2023 Planet Wimborne Green Festival.

“Speaking with her trademark passion for wildlife, Megan delivered a fascinating presentation which totally lived up to its billing, featuring creatures great and small, her own travels and research, TV work and campaigning, plus what actions we can all take to safeguard nature and protect species here in the UK,” said a spokesperson for the event.

“Her latest book, An Atlas of Endangered Species, proved a very popular purchase, and Megan signed copies and chatted with members of the audience after her talk.”
