"You inspired me to love birds and UK wildlife. I've also passed on the inspiration you gave me to my colleagues, they said they'd never even thought about wildlife until they met me and I would never have until I met you! That is a big impact"

​​"Absolutely brilliant, I for one am amazed at the breadth and depth of your wildlife knowledge. I well remember the days at Wildlife Aid where the experts would come to you for advice. A marvellous endeavour, I support and champion your cause"

"I give you full credit that one of my friends now says she has a fascination with birds - she said it's bad but she'd never cared about them before! You inspired me so much my mates bought me binoculars for my birthday"

​​"I am always amazed at your knowledge of wildlife. Any advice or help I need I always know where to come. To see you pass on your love and passion for wildlife to everyone is fantastic!"
