Sophie Pavelle spends her life travelling the British Isles, highlighting the beauty and brilliance of its wild spaces on a mission to inspire people to protect them. We walked with her in the woods near her home to find out how she feels our relationship with nature could be improved and learn a little about symbiosis through her stories of confused crabs and tricksy barnacles.

Quick Strolls: Slowing Down

A Life More Wild takes you into the outdoors with fascinating people, to hear how nature shapes their work and lives. Go eagle spotting with Hamza Yassin, strolling on the beach with Jordan Stephens and walking in the woods with Charlotte Church. And hear remarkable stories, like the lady who flew over the Russian tundra to save endangered swans, the Londoners who turned birdwatching into a global movement and the last drystone waller in Wales.
