The Salt Roads
The Salt Roads
John Goodlad (via teams) This book explores the challenges and opportunities facing the contemporary seafood industry. These issues are told through the lives of the fishers and fish farmers who provide the seafood that we eat as well as the many other stakeholders who are working with the industry to make it more sustainable. Born into a fishing family, John was raised in the fishing village of Hamnavoe in the Shetland Islands. When at university, he spent every summer holiday as a crew member on board local boats. Beginning his career working for the Shetland Fishermen’s Association, he was responsible for several important fisheries management initiatives. He then became a fish farmer—owning and managing his own business, farming organic salmon and halibut. After selling this company, John worked for some years as a senior fisheries advisor to Prince Charles' International Sustainability Unit. In this role, he was called on to provide advice and leadership on a variety of global fisheries and aquaculture initiatives. John is currently employed as an expert advisor for two seafood investment funds. https://www.johngoodlad.org/

Picnic by the Pond – Crawley Mariners Yacht Club lake in Felbridge
Crawley Mariners Yacht Club are happy to host us and reserve an area for us by the lake to picnic. There will also be an ice cream van on site as they have an informal social gathering which they are happy for us to join. As Marcus is a member, weather permitting we may get his Laser on the water for people to try and are also exploring other possibilities like paddle boards and kayaks. https://www.cmyc.co.uk/
