Welcome to this week’s episode which dives into blue Health and Crystal Palace Park ! We have so much to share in this packed-out episode. Meet the amazing Crystal Palace dinosaur team, hear from the lovely paleo-botanist Lil as she explains the planting around the lake. We celebrate the unsung female heroines of the'dino world' and give a shoutout to some of the amazing groups operating in the park.
We’ve talked a lot about green health - so Kirsten explains how water can help our wellbeing too - from walking by lakes or canoeing down the Thames. We hear about the history of Crystal Palace park and some of the hidden delights it has to offer locals and those who visit on the train !
And don't forget to check out the bonus where Jules Howard, all-round zoologist and pond nerd gives us instructions on how to save frogs by giving them a new home - in your back garden ! Remember to subscribe and send a photo if you make your own pond - we'd love to see which critters visit it !
