Episode 15: Embalming, Rugby, and Zoo Conservation

In this week's episode of Fitz in the Community, Fitz explores the diverse fabric of Devon's community. From heartfelt conversations with a Devon-based mobile embalmer, Hannah Pearce, who shares her journey of loss and her mission to help others through grief, to a chat with Ian Harris, chairman of Exmouth Rugby Club, commemorating 150 years of existence. Ian reveals the unique history behind Exmouth's flat rugby pitch, a symbol of resilience built on the rubble of the Exeter blitz. Additionally, Fitz catches up with Wooden Spoon committee member David Fowler, shedding light on the charity's local impact through fundraising in schools. Lastly, Fitz introduces us to David Gibson, the new CEO of Dartmoor Zoo, as he introduces a new arrival, Emily the Carpathian Lynx, and shares hopes for her future interactions with resident lynx, Flaviu.
