Mark Packer

Outreach and Engagement Co-ordinator, The Shark Trust

I am dedicated to advancing shark science and conservation through my role in Outreach and Engagement at The Shark Trust. My work is aimed at making shark science and conservation accessible to everyone! I work in our communications team, supporting community fundraisers, running citizen science events at local beaches, designing infographics or documents that support our conservation work, delivering our schools education programme, working with other organisations on how we communicate about shark conservation through education workshops and webinars, assisting with running events/conferences, hosting the Shark Trust Podcast, and running our social media accounts. I'm a graduate of MSc Marine Conservation from the University of Plymouth (2021/22). My research focused on utilising Blue Social Prescribing to enhance accessibility to the marine environment for individuals impacted by their mental health and/or poverty. I explored the subsequent impact on pro-ocean behaviour, emphasising the crucial intersection of environmental and mental wellbeing. Beyond my conservation pursuits, I bring a wealth of experience as a Qualified Mental Health Nurse, Phlebotomist, and Suicide Prevention Trainer. My professional journey includes roles as a Band 5 Nurse in Secure Services (forensics), Adult Acute, Psychiatric Intensive Care, a Clozapine Phlebotomy Clinic, and Perinatal Mental Health Services. And as a Clinical Team Leader (Band 6) in Rehabilitation Services for adults experiencing psychosis.
