| Community Science 
Sunday 21 March

Venue: Bootham School, Bootham, York YO30 7BU
Time: 7.30pm to 8.30pm

Presenters: Helen Keen and Miriam Underhill

In 1866 the whaling ship Diana became trapped in the Arctic – freezing into an ice floe where she remained throughout the cruel winter. Comedienne Helen Keen’s Great, Great, Great Grandfather was one of the ice-bound crew struggling to survive spectacular physical hardship, and return to the warmth of Hull.

Packed with gags, silliness, stiff upper lips, dodgy props and useful survival tips for any 19th Century Polar Expeditions you might want to join!
