About the Speakers:

Tiggy Pettifer is Head of Fundraising and Events at the Atlantic Salmon Trust, renowned for being a passionate advocate for getting farmed salmon off the table, and getting the younger generation into fly fishing. Her deep commitment to sustainable land management and wildlife preservation has made her a respected voice in the community.

Teresa Dent CBE has been the Chief Executive of the GWCT since 2001, where she has been a driving force behind many of the Trust's successful initiatives.
