About Living World Education

---

Colin is an experienced teacher with a degree in Biological Imaging and a passion for the natural world, Colin is continually developing resources, perfect for curious young minds who love wildlife! The aim of Living World Education is to celebrate and educate the diversity and conservation of wildlife. 

With our world and its wildlife in such a precarious state, it is more vital than ever for children to understand and value nature. Colin's mission is to develop greater awareness "natural literacy", enabling young people to recognise and act positively to the changes and challenges faced by our rapidly changing planet. 

Colin has illustrated and written all the original material found on LivingWorldEducation.com and is always looking to make new contacts in the education and conservation space.  

 As a teacher trained in Secondary Science and A Level Biology, Colin quickly found a passion for Special Education where he has worked as a teacher and leader in both Primary and Secondary SEN schools. 

 Colin's new book Magnificent Marine Mammals has been produced in support of The Mammal Society and British Divers Marine Life Rescue for National Mammal Week 2026 (20-26th April).

 A self-confessed shark obsessive, he has published his first 48 page, non-fiction book The Living World of Sharks. This has since been translated to French for the benefit of Shark Citizen,  a French-based research and education organization working on the island of Reunion in the Pacific Ocean. 

Resources have also been created for the Bahamas-based Sharks4Kids, the educational program ran by the brilliant Jillian Morris.

 Colin is proud to have been able to support UK charity, The Mammal Society by contributing visuals for their members magazine since the introduction of their junior members section a couple of years ago.  

He is looking forward to continuing to support this amazing organisation who promote conservation, raise awareness of key issues facing our mammals and conduct important data collection.  

 Colin has produced various educational visuals and the logo and graphics used by the CIC, Wildlife Garden Project.
