It’s with great sadness that I have to report the sudden death of our colleague and friend Nick Quintrell. Many of you will have bumped into Nick whilst out on our Weymouth reserves or at least you would have admired some of his work at Radipole and Lodmoor in which he took a lot of pride. I am sure anyone who knew Nick would agree that his knowledge and hard work has contributed massively towards creating two amazing nature reserves during his 10 years of working for RSPB. He will be greatly missed by many people and obviously our thoughts are with his family and friends
As you can imagine we are all shocked and still coming to terms with the loss of Nick, hence the brevity of this note. We will post something more appropriate in due course.
It was a such pleasure to know Nick. I have fond memories of sharing my botantical knowledge with him on many occasions. Nick was always interested in learning about the flowers on the reserve. I will miss Nick and our walks very much. It is such a sad loss.
