Outreach drinks receptions are very informal events usually hosted by an expedition veteran. Everyone’s invited to just turn up and we try to involve Biosphere Expeditions staff too wherever possible.
Drinks receptions are for people who have never been involved with Biosphere Expeditions and would just like to find out more in an informal setting. They are also for former expedition team members who would like to catch up again, or for those already signed up for an expedition who would like to get some tips before they embark on their adventure.
They are always held in a venue where you can chat in a relaxed and quiet atmosphere, i.e. no noisy bars

Essay competition with Land Rover, Oman Tourism and Swarovski Optik
This is your chance to join a unique Arabian leopard conservation expedition to Oman.
Courtesy of its global partners Land Rover, Oman Tourism and Swarovski Optik, Biosphere Expeditions is offering two free places on Biosphere Expedition’s Arabian leopard expedition to Oman. And there’s more: next to the main prize of joining the expedition there are Swarovski binoculars and Land Rover off-road driving courses to be won.
All you have to do is be prepared for an expedition (not some luxury holiday trip!) and tell us who you are, why we should take you on and what you think you can contribute to the expedition.
Go to the competition.
