He is also an accomplished photographer capturing stunning images of nature especially butterflies and moths. Guy, who lives in the Cumbrian North Pennines, has a depth of knowledge of nature which he readily shares with others. Last year, the Pendlebury Award was won by Guy Broome. “We also want to celebrate people who are doing great work for connecting people with nature and heritage, because unless people can experience these things they’ll be less likely to care for them.” “The Pendlebury award is a way for the AONB Partnership to recognise some of those outstanding contributions. It is inspired by and named after the late Bob Pendlebury, the first chairman of the North Pennines AONB Partnership.Ĭhris Woodley-Stewart, director of the North Pennines AONB Partnership, said: “Nature is in crisis, but there are many people who devote much time and energy to looking after the North Pennines’ landscape, wildlife and heritage, either in their working lives or in their spare time. This year will be the seventh time the award has been given. The award is open to groups and individuals involved in conservation in the area, or in helping people understand and enjoy nature and heritage. The AONB Partnership has opened nominations for its annual Pendlebury Award, which recognises those who go the extra mile to look after the North Pennines landscape. THE search is on for nature lovers who have made a difference to the conservation of the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). PREVIOUS WINNER: Botanist Dr Margaret Bradshaw
