Award winning environmental poet performs in Bideford

 

Environmental campaigner and BBC Radio 4 National Slam Poetry Champion Ben Mellor visited NorthDevon's Biosphere Reserve at the end of March and created a new piece of poetry based on a combination of species particular to the North Devon Biosphere area, some of which are endangered or have become extinct to the region or even the country, and characters he imagined from the places he visited.

Find out more from his blog of his visit to North Devon and watch the wonderful 'Carbon Weevils' animation.
