We have had a wonderful day in the Mendip Orchid Labs today where we have been joined by Dr David Roberts from Kent University.

Dr Roberts has been working with Orchid Project students since 2004, both in his previous role at Kew and his current role leading the Wildlife Conservation Degree at Kent University, and today joined Year 10 and Year 11 students to learn orchid propagation skills.

More joint projects are in the pipeline especially focussed on conservation research.
