About this episode

This episode features seasonal soundscapes from the South Downs National Park with guest Dr Rose O’Neill.

This year, as well as walks with interesting guests, we’re doing something a little different on A Life More Wild. Working with our charity partner Campaign for National Parks, we’re creating bonus episodes with seasonal soundscapes from some of the UK’s most precious green spaces.   In this episode, we’re listening to the breeze in the grass and the trout in the streams of the South Downs National Park, in the company of Dr Rose O’Neill, an environmental scientist and CNP’s Cheif Executive.
