I really speak from the heart about why I love rocks, fossils and landscapes. Enjoy! 💚 #jurassiccoast

For guided fossil walks try @CharmouthHCC or @LymeRegisMuseum, they will teach you how to look safely along the beaches here and train you how to look for and collect fossils. Until you can visit, why not visit @DarrellWakelam to make your own versions!

Key museums to explore who have local #jurassiccoast fossils include Etches Collection @TEC_Kimmeridge, @DorsetMuseum @BridportMuseum @SidmouthMuseum @PortlandMuseum1

Plenty of visitor centres along the coast will welcome you when it is safe & allowed to travel incl: Studland @NTSouthWest, @DurlstonCP, Chesil Beach @DWTWeyPort, Lulworth Education Centre @LulworthRangers, @seatonjurassic 😀💚

Safety Tips: 1. Always go on a falling tide or low tide, 2. Stay away from the cliffs as they are unstable and liable to fall or slump, 3. Do not collect fossils or hammer directly into the cliffs - that is illegal

4. Report any special fossil finds to the @CharmouthHCC as part of the fossil collecting code of conduct, 5. Enjoy yourself!

There are lots of other lovely places with special geology to explore across the country. You could join the @GeolAssoc and find out more through special local groups. Or children could join @rockwatchclub - the national kids geology club!

If you are inspired by my story & want to help a good cause why not donate a few quid to @MaryAnningRocks who are now building a statue of this great woman and planning an amazing education programme to boot. Thanks for watching me on the show! 😀💚🙏🏾
