From a young age, I’ve always loved animals. It started when, as a toddler; I was enchanted by the diligent ants and lethargic snails that resided in my garden. This has blossomed into an ever-growing wonderment and love of the diversity of creatures that our planet possesses. ![]()

My journey to becoming a youth ambassador for The Born Free Foundation started when I was 11. I had recently heard of the devastation that palm oil was causing and how it was endangering the lives of a creature particularly close to my heart; the Orangutan. I started campaigning and fundraising, which ultimately led me to setting up my twitter account. Now, at 16, I have a very wide and diverse audience of people determined to do their utmost to help animals. ‘ Bella Lack ![]()

Emiel is a Graphic Designer and Environmentalist from London who, since a young age, has embraced creativity and design with a passion for the natural world. The 20-year-old currently volunteers at the Bumblebee Conservation Trust, using his talents to help spread awareness around the plight of bees and has proudly worked alongside the Trust since 2019. “There are around 20,000 known species of bees but I think every single one is important. Understanding the importance of bees and their contribution to a balanced ecosystem and global food production. 70% of the world’s agriculture depends exclusively on bees. Habitat loss, toxic pesticides, climate change, parasites and diseases are all responsible for the decline in global populations, and we must acknowledge the importance of these creatures before it’s too late”.![]()
Emiel regularly advocates the power of design as one of the most important tools to drive change and strongly believes in using your personal platform for the greater good, regardless of how many people you can reach. “There will always be someone to take your torch and run with it”.![]()
Earlier this year Emiel was invited to be part of PANGAIA’s Changemakers campaign as one of seven ambassadors chosen for his advocacy within wildlife conservation and overall goal of achieving widespread education through visual media. “Understanding that I could use this passion in a way that could better the lives of others was the turning point that led me to design for change”. Recently Emiel was invited to model for natural skincare brand, YOPE as a representative for the BBCT.![]()
Emiel aspires to shed light on wildlife conservation particularly amongst young people, advocating human-wildlife coexistence, environmental protection and sustainable living. He has long-term plans to continue supporting the BBCT with their mission to raise awareness of the importance bumblebees have in our everyday lives, whilst working to successfully build a healthy population in the UK once again. ![]()

I am so proud to announce that Doug Allan has agreed to add his fingerprint to #SPOTtimespotTIME #conservationmeanslife #conservationpanel #alllife #sittingequally ![]()
![]()
Doug Allan is a freelance wildlife and documentary cameraman who films both topside and underwater. His equipment includes RED Weapon 4K , Sony PMW 200 camera and Canon stills cameras with housings and various lenses for all of them.![]()
![]()
Born in 1951 in Scotland, he graduated with an honours degree in marine biology from Stirling University in 1973. On completion of his degree, he decided that science at the sharp end wasn’t quite where he sought to be. Underwater anywhere became the drive and for the next three years he worked on a wide range of diving jobs. He searched for (and found) freshwater pearls in the rivers of Scotland. Commercial diving in Germany involved underwater video work and rebuilding canals. Twice he assisted with research on marine biological expeditions with Cambridge University in the Red Sea. And in the summer 1975 he ran the Bouley Bay Underwater Centre in Jersey in the Channel Islands.![]()
![]()
BRITISH ANTARCTIC SURVEY![]()
But the big break was in 1976 when he first went to the Antarctic to work as a research diver on the British Antarctic Survey station at Signy Island in the South Orkneys. The job entailed helping the scientists to carry out their underwater studies, from boats in the summer, beneath the ice in the winter. It was the start of an affair with ice that lasts to this day.![]()
![]()
Over the next ten years until 1985, Doug and B.A.S. had a great relationship – he spent four winters and nine summers “down south” in that time, and was awarded the Fuchs Medal, then the Polar Medal, for his work. He did three winters at Signy as diver, and one at Halley Station down at 75° S as Base Commander. Halley was no place for a biologist – but it offered a chance to winter with Emperor Penguins, and a first opportunity for Doug to turn over with a movie camera rather than just stills.![]()
![]()
BBC![]()
The BBC took first option on buying that Emperor footage for their forthcoming series Birds for All Seasons, and Doug’s career took a new direction. Using his experience of ice diving, and intimate knowledge of Signy through its winters, he proposed two films to Survival Anglia then in 1987 spent ten months in the Antarctic making them.![]()
![]()
FILMING SINCE THEN![]()
Since then, he has returned frequently to both the poles, with a string of high profile award winning films and series for the major TV networks worldwide. In contributing to The Blue Planet, Planet Earth, Life, Human Planet, Frozen Planet, Expedition Iceberg, Forces of Nature and many other programmes he has made over 100 filming trips, including orcas attacking gray whales off California, polar bears trying to capture belugas in a frozen hole in Arctic Canada, and killer whales washing seals off ice floes in Antarctica – all on screen firsts.![]()

David Yarrow was born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1966. He took up photography at an early age and as a 20-year-old found himself working as a photographer for The London Times on the pitch at the World Cup Final in Mexico City. On that day, David took the famous picture of Diego Maradona holding the World Cup and, as a result, was subsequently asked to cover the Olympics and numerous other sporting events. Many years later David established himself as a fine art photographer by documenting the natural world from new perspectives and the last nine years have been career defining.![]()
![]()
David’s evocative and immersive photography of life on earth is most distinctive and has earned him an ever growing following amongst art collectors. His large monochrome images made in Los Angeles are on display in leading galleries and museums across Europe and North America. He is now recognised as one of the best selling fine art photographers in the world and his limited edition works regularly sell at high prices at Sotheby’s and other auction houses.![]()

David’s position in the industry has been rewarded with a wide range of advisory and ambassadorial roles. He is an ambassador for WildArk and The Kevin Richardson Foundation. As the European ambassador for Nikon, he has recently been integral to the company’s most anticipated camera release of the last decade. In December 2017 he shot LVMH’s latest “Don’t Crack Under Pressure” campaign with Cara Delevingne, which can be seen in airports around the world. In January 2019 David was appointed as a global ambassador for UBS. Most recently, in the spring of 2020, David was appointed a Global Ambassador for Best Buddies – one of America’s most established![]()

At the start of 2020, David was in Australia documenting the devastating bush fires that have destroyed communities, wildlife and wildlands. Using the striking and poignant images that he captured of the effects of the fire, Yarrow launched the #KoalaComeback Campaign to support the recovery efforts in Australia. As of early June, the campaign has raised $1.4m.![]()

Hilary Conlan #hilaryconlan #Cambridgeforum researching The influence of landscape matrix and food sources on the distribution of insect pollinators in intensively farmed and restored fenland is adding #Fingerprint to #conservationpanel #spottimespottime #alllife![]()
![]()
Summary of research![]()
Intensively farmed fenlands appears very poor in insect pollinators. The ditch banks provide a large potential area which may be exploited to enhance pollinator habitat once the current situation and management is understood.![]()
![]()
The main aims of the research are to determine the pollinator assemblages found in intensively farmed fenland ditch banks and assess the importance of diversity of pollinator species in relation to pollination services of non-crop flowering plants. Additionally the development of diversity of pollinator species in restored fenland in relation to time under restoration will be assessed and the development of a pollen transfer network model will contrast the management of fenland under restoration with that of intensively farmed fenland.![]()

When John Sparks first joined the Unit in 1965 “as a green research zoologist with a keen interest in birds and monkeys”, he was tasked with producing programmes for radio. “The Unit was very small when I first arrived. There were about 25 people – compared to something like 200 now,” John says. “It was just coming into the age of television, and there were people at the BBC who thought television would never catch on.”![]()
Leaving radio behind, John produced groundbreaking series’ including Day of the Zebra, the first time the Unit had made a full film in Africa, and also Life on Earth, the 13-part 1979 series that catapulted one David Attenborough to fame. “Time in the Unit was measured as ‘before Life on Earth’ and ‘after Life on Earth’,” John says. “Up to Life on Earth, on the whole, the Unit made programs in this country. London had a view that down in Bristol, there were a lot of straw-chewing naturalists who would stalk out onto the Downs with their binoculars at lunchtime, so they left us to make programmes about the UK and did all the interesting foreign stuff in London.![]()
“Attenborough always wanted to do a wildlife series with a high budget himself, and when he left as controller of BBC Two, he came to Bristol to talk about it. London put up quite a strong fight that Bristol was not capable – it would involve travel all over the world and a high-standard of filming, and these straw-chewing people couldn’t possibly manage it, but David put his foot down.![]()
“As the series went out, the audience went up, the critics took notice and academics started writing articles saying, ‘This is absolutely fantastic, we teach this stuff’. It peaked with my primate programme at 17.5million viewers, and suddenly we’d arrived. London had to admit that we were capable of doing it.” Thank you John & Sally Sparks .

![]()
Background![]()
Olivia’s research focuses upon the impact that land-use change has upon biodiversity and ecosystems. Her postdoctoral research was based at the York Institute of Tropical Ecosystems and investigated the impact that agriculture and tropical deforestation have upon East African bird and butterfly communities. Prior to this she completed her PhD at the University of Nottingham which assessed the impact of traditional Bedouin orchards on biodiversity within South Sinai, Egypt. This work explored the dynamics of plant-pollinator interactions within these diverse cropping systems, and demonstrated that flowering minority crops enhance pollination of almond. Olivia specialises in pollinator conservation and is particularly interested in the ecological value of traditional agricultural systems.
