Caroline Quentin is one of our most beloved and acclaimed stage and screen actresses, especially in the field of comedy. She will be familiar to many from shows such as Jonathan Creek and Men Behaving Badly, but is also an award-winning stage actress. What is less well-known about her is her life-long passion for wildlife, nature and gardening. She now lives in a country farmhouse in Devon and has a dedicated Instagram account @cqgardens, which showcases her love of gardening and is hugely popular in its own right. Caroline has now written and illustrated her own book, Drawn to Nature. Written in her familiar conversational voice, this book invites you to reconnect with nature in all forms, whether you nurture a sprawling garden or just a few houseplants.
Caroline will discuss her celebrated career, but we will also explore the themes in this book: how we can learn joy and calm in the natural world, wherever you live and whatever your space. She will also take questions and sign copies of her book at the end of the event.
