Born and bred in Nottingham, Jack is primarily a freelance underwater and wildlife cameraman with a deep passion for the natural world. 

Freshwater fish are what Jack is best known for, being termed the “fish twitcher” by the BBC for hunting around the UK to film every British freshwater fish – a task that took seven years for him to complete and find all 54. From Scottish lochs to southern chalk streams there aren’t many waterways Jack hasn’t dipped in. This is the subject that he will be talking about on 14th October.

Doors open 7 pm for start at 7.30 pm, finish by 9.30 pm. Free to members and under-25s. £5 charge for other visitors.
