A FUND that will provide budding scientists and land managers the chance to explore ecological research has been launched in memory of an internationallyrenowned scientist, who has died aged 77. Money raised through the Dick Potts Legacy Fund will help cover the expense of small projects researching farmland wildlife, flora and associated habitats, research supplies and equipment, travel, software and attendance at conferences.
Since the fundraising page went live, donations have started to pour in. Some £13,000 has already been raised in honour of Dick, who was appointed director-general of the Game Conservancy Trust in 1993 – which became the Game and Wildlife Conservation Trust in 2007 – before retiring in 2001. Despite this, he continued to work tirelessly until his death on March 30 this year.
