L.O.S. Presentation - Friday 4th December

81 Degrees North - An Arctic Adventure
David Shallcross
A trip of a lifetime, David goes to Arctic Svalbard to see the amazing polar bears and enormous walrus, plus other specialist species of, birds, animals and flowers that are found there.

Friday 4th December sees L.O.S. Chairman Mr. David Shallcross give a talk about his recent trip to the Arctic region of Svalbard, in a presentation entitled "81 Degrees North - An Arctic Adventure.


David's show contains images of polar bears, walrus, seals, whales, reindeer, foxes and many bird species seen throughout his 16 day adventure of a lifetime.

We will see how the people past and present live, going to the edge of the pack ice just 500 miles from the North Pole, travelling down fjords and getting up close to Glacier fronts.


With hundreds of incredible photographs, this is truly one talk you don't want to miss. But please remember to wear something warm as the temperature is close to freezing, even in the summer!

So if you want to find out where Svalbard actually is, come along and join us in the Derby Room at Leigh Library this Friday (4th December). Doors open at 7:15pm for a 7:30pm start and everyone is welcome.
