Lucy Lapwing

Lucy is a self-described nature nerd, naturalist and writer. Working in conservation, wildlife campaigning and behind the scenes on BBC’s Springwatch, her passion for nature and her occupation meld as one. Outside of - and indeed inside of - work, you’re likely to spot her rootling in the mud, climbing trees barefoot or whispering compliments to spiders. Lucy determined to fight the biodiversity crisis with a sense of humour, and is a big advocate of green prescriptions following a cancer diagnosis in her early 20s. Her first book is LOVE IS A TOAD: Exploring Our Relationship With Nature (Blink, 2026).
