New episode! 💡

This one's all about #apprenticeships as a potential path into the #conservation profession: Liz has been an #apprentice, Jenny has hosted an #apprenticeship and Kloe is just plain keen.

We also chat with Jane Henderson about the potential pitfalls of the UK model, and to stone carvers Nina and Charlotte about how it works in their industry.

Listen here: https://thecword.show/2024/12/11/s15e07-apprenticeships/

#TheCWordPodcast #conservation #podcasts #conservators #apprentices

In our second accreditation episode we invite Bethany Jo Mikelait from #CAPC in #Canada and Mariana Onofri from #Brazil as we delve into why or why not one might want regulation, quality control, and/or accreditation in our profession. Kloe and Solange also share their UK accreditation journeys so far.

Don't forget to tune in for a Dear Jane about politely declining to work on an object!

Happy Halloween! 🎃

I've made another #conservation themed (or more accurately IPM themed) pumpkin this year: the SILVERFISH!

Previous years have included woolly bears, clothes moth, and tape. Because of course.

Keep it spooky out there! 🎃

I'm super proud to be quoted (via @thecwordpodcast) in the latest issue of News in Conservation where Sharra Grow has written a fantastic article about #conservators and how we (mis)treat our own bodies in the quest for preservation of material culture.

It's well worth a read.

New episode! 📢

This time we're joined by business owner and #conservator Alison Lister as we explore the private sector in #conservation: from why we need to be more visible and share our know-how, to the future of the profession. 📈

Also tune in for an interview with book conservator Bridget Mitchell who tells us about finding joy in your business, and the power of rest.

Every conservator's dream: a #clock that shows not only the time but also the #temperature and relative #humidity!

I wonder how accurate it is. 🤔

Thanks #lidl! Watch museum professionals sneak these into storage rooms across the world now...

(Available from 11 May in UK stores. This isn't a paid advert. I'm just a nerd.)
