Lucy McRobert

Lucy McRobert is a storyteller, writer and communicator, who has been working in UK wildlife conservation since she was 21-years-old.

Originally from Leicestershire, she has worked for a variety of UK organisations from Suffolk to Rutland, Dorset to the Isles of Scilly and more. She is passionate about encouraging young people to make nature part of their lives and empowering them to take action for the environment, which is why she founded a youth nature network called A Focus On Nature.

She has written extensively on nature and wildlife, including publishing her first book 365 Days Wild in 2019, as well as being a columnist for Birdwatch and writing for several magazines and newspapers including BBC WildlifeI News, British Birds and the junior magazines for both the RSPB and The Wildlife Trusts. She has appeared several times on local and national television and radio, always talking about birds, wildlife and connecting people with nature.

She is also a Marine Mammal Medic, meaning that she is trained to rescue seals, whales and dolphins. A wildlife lover, she spends her spare time watching birds, whales and dolphins, and exploring wild places with her young daughter, Georgiana.
