Seneca Geography Book of the Year 2020

Delighted to announce the shortlist for the 2020 Seneca Geography Book of the Year award and was very pleased to be asked a month or so ago to be on the judging panel. There has been so much talk about books during lockdown with people ordering books as a way of helping their mental health and also upskill their subject knowledge and tie in to new curriculum planning which we have all been doing.
