The 2024/2025 season of PAST talks was due to commence in October but was unable to do so because of the lack of an evening ferry service.

We are delighted to commence our programme with a talk by Dr Carwyn Frost from the Queens Marine Lab Marine Research Group entitled “Tides of Energy” which will discuss tidal energy generation around the UK and Ireland and will include reference to the current device being tested near the Walter Rock just North of Portaferry. 

This will take place in Portaferry Market House at 7:30pm on Friday 22nd November 2024.  Entrance £5 (including refreshments). All are welcome.
