Inspiring Explorer – Trip of A Lifetime to South Georgia

Kaitlyn Martin was selected by Royal Society Te Apārangi as one of 22 young New Zealanders to travel with the Antarctic Heritage Trust to an island in the South Atlantic Ocean in 2023. The group journeyed to South Georgia to honour the centenary year of Sir Ernest Shackleton’s final expedition, the ‘Quest’. Come and hear Kaitlyn talk about her ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ experience.

Kaitlyn will introduce you to some of South Georgia’s inspirational inhabitants, including seals, penguins, and majestic bird species, as well as its rich marine biodiversity. She will also talk about the impact climate change is having on the island.

All welcome.
