About this Event

Cover image Β© Nina Constable

Join us for a screening of Balancing the Scales, a powerful and beautifully produced film from the Beaver Trust that follows the ecological, social and practical implications of bringing beavers back into our landscapes. The film delves into one of the most pressing ecological questions of our time: can beavers and migratory fish successfully coexist?

To open the event, we will welcome Dr Rob Needham, Restoration Manager at the Beaver Trust, who will give us a short introduction to the film. Following the film there will be opportunities to ask questions and discuss what a beaver-inclusive future might look like here.
