Golf Course Ecology

Join Dr Marie Athorn and James Hutchinson to hear about different conservation initiatives taking place on golf courses and how you can get involved and help nature on your golf course. They’ll give you some tips on what to look out for in autumn and winter too!

Presented by Dr Marie Athorn, business conservation advisor (The R&A), RSPB and James Hutchinson, MSM – ecology & sustainability, BIGGA

Dr Marie Athorn

Business Conservation Advisor to The R&A

Dr Marie Athorn joined the RSPB in January 2020 to undertake the role of Business Conservation Advisor to The R&A as part of the partnership between the RSPB and The R&A. Conservation and ecology have always been her passion and Marie has shaped her career in these fields. Marie has played golf her whole life and felt this role was a great opportunity to combine those two things and use her job to increase awareness and support for biodiversity conservation on golf courses.
