When I first heard this, he instantly became one of my favorite actors.. Not because of his acting, but because... What an amazing human being!

Revisit the work of Dr. Jane Goodall (1934-2025) through her 2 classic TED Talks โ plus a special conversation with @TEDChris in 2020.
Her thoughts on the relationship between humans, nature and our role in protecting Earth remain as relevant as ever: t.ted.com/34PYUaF

Education and policy of successive Governments has failed to prioritise outdoor education.
To turn the situation around will take a serious, conscious and deliberate effort, and I want the Government to take this opportunity to make that happen.

It takes a huge amount of commitment to be a volunteer Coastguard Rescue Officer and that includes a huge amount of training. Port Talbot Coastguard Rescue Team recently undertook a sunset water rescue training session to keep their skills sharp #999Coastguard #SARFamily

Meet Carlton Real, who has been presented with the prestigious Billy Deacon Search And Rescue Memorial Trophy for the rescue of a casualty during extremely treacherous conditions.
He refused to give up and was able to save the young casualty's life.

Proud to stand alongside farmers today in protest of the Government's devastating changes to IHT.
Families will be forced to sell up their farms, with the land going into the hands of the big corporations. This will be a disaster for our food security and for Britain's landscape

HM Coastguardโs ability to protect Britainโs coastline is owed to the courage and bravery of those who fought to secure our freedom.
What vital role did HM Coastguard play during the world wars?

The first sign of a stroke might not seem like much. Like - not being able to raise your arm. Or struggling to smile. Or slurring when you speak. Any sign of a stroke is always an emergency.
Face or arm or speech, at the first sign, it's time to call 999.

Have you ever been trapped by the mud?
Mud and quicksand can be incredibly dangerous as once youโre stuck, itโs extremely difficult to get out.
If you do get trapped, sit back to spread your weight evenly across the surface, then call 999 and ask for the Coastguard.
