The very next morning Voyage of Discovery moved to Liskeard!

Over 200 visitors came along to Voyage Under the Surface, where PhD researchers from the University of Plymouth's CRISPS team talked about food security and how soil, water, nutrients and climate all connect.

ELLIE the robot dog came too, and went on a walkabout around Liskeard to meet residents. She met a lot of people, and drew a few double takes.

Thank you to the researchers who gave their morning, to Liskeard Library for hosting us, and to everyone in Liskeard who dropped in or stopped ELLIE for a chat.
