Hi
I'm GeoDave or just plain David if you prefer (although that can get confusing with so many of us around). I am one of the two co-founders of the Give Geography Its Place Campaign. Although we now have a new Action Committee led by the dynamic Adam, I am keen to keep involved wherever possible. Hopefully the Action Committee will come up some fresh ideas to keep promoting Geography.

Hi all,
Hi Geographers.
Well....my name is Adam Lawson and I am member of the GGIP Action Committee. For a living I work as a Geography Teacher in Kent and operate two websites www.geographyatthemovies.co.uk and www.geogdocs.co.uk.
I am really excited by this forum to hear the views of geographers on what they want from the GGIP and how we can do it! A campaign such as this can thrive with the support of passionate people.

Geography is too important for society, economy and the environment to be ignored by the media and sidelined by too many politicians. It's time for stonger and longer lasting action. _________________ Give Geography its Place

Hello all. Sorry for the delayed response (I've been chasing my ar** for the last couple of weeks). Pleased to see the forum and hope it is successful in raising awareness. In my area there has been a noticeable increase in awareness of the campaign and I will do my very best to help it to grow further.

Hello! I'm Des and I'm a Geographer based in Worcestershire (yay!), although from Scotland originally. I'm very impressed at how active the new GGiP committee is; on behalf of all geographers (I hope), I'd like to say thank you! Although I routinely work most evenings and at least part of the weekend (not good), I'm happy to help if I can.

I thought I had posted on this thread before!
I'm Victoria (aka LittleMiss on the SLN forum), a geography teacher in Derbyshire, and one of the newest members of the GGiP Committee.
Welcome Des, and thank you for your support - would be great to hear some of your ideas about how we can GGiP! _________________ www.geogtastic.blogspot.com www.ggip.co.uk
