I manage the distribution of the Bill Pettit Memorial Grant. Once a year NatSCA opens up applications for the grant to support a collections related project. I receive the applications and work with the committee on supporting the best project.
I am the curator of Natural History at The Manchester Museum. Here I work with curating and researching the geology and biology collections. My specialism is palaeontology and historical geology, but enjoy all aspects of the geology collection at Manchester.
