The University of Manchester is a major shareholder in a farm The Kindling Trust hopes to purchase in the coming 1-2 years. The farm will give researchers the opportunity to explore research questions and to test their research in the real world. This workshop will provide researchers with the opportunity to learn more about the Kindling Trust and build collaborative links.
The workshop will be introduced by Julian Skyrme (Director of Social Responsibility) then Chris and Helen from the Kindling Trust will talk through their plans for the farm and outline the opportunities for researchers. There will be plenty of opportunities for researchers to engage and ask questions throughout the event and we encourage you to come with research ideas.
