Richard Winspear
Agricultural Advice Manager
The enthusiasm of farmers to help Stone-curlews in Berkshire, Hampshire and Wiltshire during my first contract after leaving college inspired me to dedicate my career to advising farmers on wildlife conservation. Afterall, with farmland forming 70% of the land in the UK, what could be more important to restoring nature than working with farmers? I am now Agricultural Advice Manager at the RSPB where we work in partnership to develop nature-friendly farming advice with all of the other wildlife NGOs to provide consistent advice that supports all nature.
