Our #GAConf23 Fab Four! A virtual high five ✋ from me and all back at the Cranedale Centre I hope you all had a great first day and eve! Have fun Geographical Association conference tomorrow!🌎

🥳The Cranedale Centre is 40 years old today, so we reckon that means we've served over 60 000 roast dinners. Thanks to everyone who's been a part of our story so far (especially those who did roast dinner pot wash!).🥳

Wish this was your day job? Join our team and make it a reality! We're recruiting for a Field Studies Tutor. Closing date is Friday 26th May and all details are available on our website cranedale.com/recruitment/ #fieldwork Environmentjob.co.uk #vacancies

Thank you Y6! We have been impressed with your scientific observations, your brilliant questions and your positive attitudes. Have a safe trip!

I cannot fathom why anyone would want to fell #SycamoreGap There is no justification. My brain cannot compute it.. What on Earth will be left for the next generation if folk in society act in this way?
