September has been extremely busy for all of us. We’re now officially halfway through our internship programmes and can’t believe how quickly it has gone!

All our projects are fully underway, and we’ve been preparing to share our initial findings at the halfway point presentations in Cumbria at the end of the month. This will also be the first time all the interns are together since the Crown Estate training week in July so we’re looking forward to catching up and seeing what everyone has been up to!

While we are still working towards our final reports and outputs, this has been a great time for reflection on our progress, connections made and field experience gained.
