Fiona Sheriff was on a bit of a roll through 2024 and this has continued into 2025.
She received awards from the Geographical Association and the Royal Geographical Society. She has also been involved in a number of events as well as continuing her important work with the UK Polar Network.
She also published her first book, which has also been awarded a Silver Award by the GA. I have a few of those :)
Her first book is part of the '100 Ideas' series.
This one has 100+ ideas for fieldwork.

I shall certainly be mentioning it when I do my usual annual trips to a number of ITE departments

I received a copy of the book as thanks for providing a quote for the publicity and marketing of the book.
