| | Hi Karen I wanted to share with you some exciting Star Count news. Our local group CPRE Avon and Bristol have teamed up with the amazing educator Jo Richardson at Space Detectives to bring you a brilliant programme of free events which will take place throughout Star Count (6-14 February). There are four online events for children and families (suitable for primary-aged kids) and four for adults and older children. And the events are open to everyone, wherever you live. But places are limited, so click the button below to reserve your place today. These exciting online sessions will delve into the wonders of the night sky, planets and the celestial objects that can be observed from our part of the world. We'll also learn about the impact of light pollution on our view of stars and planets, and how we can start to reduce it. In our dark skies sessions, your little ones can become a 'Dark Sky Ranger' and understand just how important it is to look after and care for the night sky, not just for now but for future generations. The online events are hosted by Jo Richardson, a Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society, and one of the 10 UK Space Ambassadors working with the European Space Education Office. As these are online events, you will only need to book one place per family. Book now to avoid disappointment! Happy star-gazing, and stay safe. Emma Emma Marrington
