Into the Light

A talk by Daniel Hill, Rewilding Ranger at Heal, Somerset about the rewilding of a former dairy farm near Bruton.

Wednesday 3 June, 6.30 for 7pm, upstairs at The Prickly Pear.

Having graduated from the University of Bath with a Mathematical Sciences degree, Dan took a slightly different career path to some of his fellow alumni. After the stresses of Uni, he decided to take a more relaxed year post-studies which gave him time to reflect on his passions and future aspirations. During this time, he took on a full-time practical volunteering role with the RSPB away from home and rediscovered his enthusiasm for wildlife and its needs for protection. A whole year of learning, training, and engagement gave Dan a solid platform to begin his conservation career.​

He feels incredibly lucky to have been given the opportunity to join the Heal team at such a young stage in its rewilding life:

It’s not often you get such a blank canvas to work from. Usually, you step into an organisation that has everything in place and you just continue the work instead of being able to do everything from the ground up. The potential is incredible!
