I’ve been out treasure hunting (foraging) for most of my life! Growing up searching the coasts and forests along the Jurassic Coast.
I'm passionate about the Fossils, Fungi and Sea Creature’s along the Jurassic South Coast, with my finds featured in The Lyme Regis Museum in the main Mary Anning plesiosaur display! Plus my very own draw!
