Newsround Jan 2020
Something a little different this week. Jim and Nick sit down to review a few of the stories of the great outdoors that made headlines during the month of January. They aren't necessarily specifically fieldsports but all have a link somewhere along the way to our passion for game.

Charles Smith - Jones - Author and wildlife management expert
We are joined by Charles Smith-Jones, an all round countryside man who specialised in wildlife management after completing a full military career in the Royal Welsh Fusiliers. Charles is the author of four countryside pursuit books which I recommend to all our listeners. They are packed with useful information and accompanied by a large library of photographs. Well worth having one, or more, on your coffee table! -

A Yorkshireman who fell in love with deer whilst working on the Isle of Jura, Nigel is playing a key role in the countryside pursuit arena by bringing game meats to the general public. His passion for farming and game has enabled him to create a professional nationwide distribution network of game meats into retailers, the public, supermarkets and hospitality sectors alike. We need more people like Nigel to champion the sustainability of British game.
