      Saturday March 27th

      Caring for our world
      Rotary District 1200

      We will be back soon ...

      ON THIS DAY IN 1808 THE SKI JUMP SLOPE WAS INVENTED...FOLLOWED THE DAY AFTER BY THE INVENTION OF THE STRETCHER?!

      Meet legendary Olympian EDDIE THE EAGLE who certainly tested that, and whose life was even featured in a major film (see trailer link).   

      He was the man with the wind beneath his wings – but he has so many more achievements under his belt. 
      What would you like to ask him?
      Join us for a live, virtual Q & A with Eddie.

      And meet equally inspirational SIMEON MOORE in a live Q & A: ex-member of a notorious gang, now dedicated to mentoring young people not to follow in his previous footsteps.   

      Find out about Simeon’s writing, music, TV work, and what inspired him to turn his life around.


      THINK ALL ZOOMS ARE A 'BORE-OSAURUS' NOWADAYS?

      Then think again - meet our Tyrannosaurus! 

      Blood and gore will delight (some!) adults and budding palaeontologists alike. (Phew - do you know how many times it took to type that correctly?)
      Between 200 and 2000 extinctions still occur annually: let's look at the causation of the loss of animals who will sadly never roam our world again.
      (Though we may feel grateful we're not face-to-face with flesh-eating dinosaurs.)
      Film-maker Paul Wooding brings you his totally unique T REX AUTOPSY. Do you have the stomach for it?

      PLUS ...

      Plus marine biologist and off-shore wind farm expert Sophie Banham (a previous Young Scientist of the Year) on the environment, and Wendy O'Carroll talking about her successful photographer son (featured on many TV programmes) who happens to have Down Syndrome (take a look at www.oliverhellowell.com).

      From the comfort of your own home.
      In your pyjamas if you like.
      We won't sit in judgement. (Unless they have a fluffy animal pattern.)

      Best wishes - hope to see you there.

      District 1200 Governor

      PS DID YOU KNOW THAT THE WORLD'S BEST COFFEE SHOULD BE EATEN WITH A SPOON?

      No, we didn’t believe Rory’s excuse either! But you might learn the truth about coffee from ‘Mr Miles’ in the ENTERTAINMENT ZONE.
