Warren Slaney is Head River Keeper at the Haddon Estate in Derbyshire; one of the most celebrated river keepers in the UK, known for his passion for wild Trout populations. Warren has asked that the proceeds from his talk be donated to his favourite conservation charity, the Wild Trout Trust.

Stuart Crofts is renowned both as an angler and as an entomologist: he has published entomology articles in Wild Trout Trust periodicals, and works with the Riverfly Partnership and Buglife conservation charities. Those who were able to attend the entomology workshop run by Stuart for us in 2008 will know his passion for his subject is infectious.
