Their journey, part of the Novara: One Planet Project, blends adventure and purpose, working with coastal communities to better understand and respond to the impacts of climate change.From the breathtaking stillness of Greenland’s fjords to the tense hours trapped in Arctic pack ice, their voyage has been both a test of endurance and a meditation on humanity’s relationship with nature.Join us to hear about the challenges, revelations, and quiet lessons learned while sailing at the edge of the world.When Dr. Nigel Jollands first set sail into the Arctic, he wasn’t seeking escape—he was seeking connection. A climate and sustainability expert with nearly three decades of experience driving change across governments and industries, Jollands turned his focus to the frontlines of the planet’s transformation. As skipper of SY Novara, he’s voyaging through some of the most remote and fragile environments on Earth to witness, document, and share the realities of a changing climate.All proceeds will go to Hermitage River Projects.Hermitage River Projects is a charity linked to Hermitage Community Moorings, which provides opportunities for local communities to access the river and boating through educational, recreational and cultural activities.
