The River Waveney Trust is welcoming a passionate advocate for waterways to speak at a pub on the banks of the Norfolk and Suffolk border stretch of the Broads.

Amy-Jane Beer promotes access to rivers and is a biologist, writer, publishing consultant, author of over 20 books, and feature writer for the Guardian, BBC Wildlife Magazine, BBC Countryfile and the Yorkshire Post.

Her talk will explore her most recent book, ’The Flow: Rivers, Water & Wildness’, which draws on her deep knowledge of rivers, ecology and landscapes.

It is said to be a profound, immersive exploration of our personal and ecological place in nature.
