Marine Life and conservation issues will be the topic of a forthcoming talk at Stirling’s Smith Art Gallery and Museum on Tuesday 28 June at 12 noon.

Cally Fleming, Executive Director of The Hebridean Whale and Dolphin Trust is travelling to Stirling from their headquarters in Tobermory on the Isle of Mull, to speak on the history and work of the Trust and the different whale and dolphin species of the Hebrides.

Lasting approximately 40 minutes, the talk is free and open to anyone with an interest in these issues.

The Hebridean Whale and Dolphin Trust is a registered charity, established in 1994, which has studied whales and dolphins around the Argyll waters and much of the Hebrides and west coast of Scotland.  The trust uses a combination of research, education and awareness raising to help in the conservation of cetaceans and the wider marine environment.

The talk at the Smith is arranged in connection with the ‘Island Life’ exhibition by Morag Lloyds, showing at the Smith until 31 July.  Morag is donating 10% from exhibition sales to the Hebridean Whale and Dolphin Trust.
