Countryfile presenter Matt Baker to deliver talk at Nottingham’s Albert Hall for Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust

Countryfile presenter Matt Baker will talk about all things nature and the countryside in a lecture for a charity.

The star is the latest to give a talk as part of Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust’s popular An Evening With series.

It takes place at Nottingham’s Albert Hall on Thursday, November 9.

A much-loved face on British television, Matt has become hugely popular presenting shows such as BBC1’s The One Show, Blue Peter and Countryfile, and raising awareness about how the power and beauty of the countryside can be an inspiration and source of joy for all.

His book - A Year on Our farm: How the Countryside Made Me - is a Sunday Times best seller which, alongside his own productions for C4, Our Farm in The Dales, follows Matt’s life on his beloved family farm as he celebrates the natural year.

Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust chief executive Paul Wilkinson said: “We’re delighted to get these wonderful events back up and running.

Audiences have enjoyed the opportunity to hear from popular and inspirational figures and we’re so pleased that Matt has agreed to come to Nottingham to get us back up and running.

“As well as being hugely enjoyable and entertaining, the special evenings at The Albert Hall help generate vital income to support our county-wide conservation work. So, whether you’re a fan of Matt’s work on Countryfile, Blue Peter or Our Farm in the Dales, it looks set to be a wonderful event.”

An Evening with Matt Baker includes his talk and a question-and-answer session.
