VISITORS of a Reading museum will have the unique opportunity to take part in conversational trips led by specialists.

The latest offering of the Museum of English Rural Life (MERL)’s Our Green Stories Tours series will see curator Dr Ollie Douglous joined by members of the research team currently working on Feed the Birds, Do Not Feed the Animals, including Juliette Waterman and Gaia Mortier.

This major Wellcome Trust funded project focuses on different aspects of human-animal relations.

Each tour will last about 45 minutes and culminates in a pop-up display or an opportunity to peek behind the scenes.

There will be a chance to ask Ollie and his guests questions at the end of each session.

The free sessions run from 11.30am-12.30pm at the MERL, Redlands Road.
