Happy to be invited by The Hampshire Skeptics Society to share my research on my drones with their audience.
The group describes itself as ‘a non-profit organisation for the promotion of science, reason and critical thinking’.
The blurb for my presentation (26/11/2025): From policing to infrastructure inspection and delivery, aerial drones are increasingly present in UK airspace – mobilised in civil, commercial and recreational roles. So too have recent UK Government ambition statements outlined aims for commercial drones to be ‘commonplace by 2030’. Yet, while supporting increasingly wide-ranging applications and associated with economic, social, and sustainability benefits, drones have also raised critical concerns and questions spanning privacy, noise, safety, security and wildlife impacts, as well as their implications on built environments adapted to support scaled integration. In this talk, Anna will share a range of drone stories from her research to reflect on drone use and encounters in everyday life – and potential futures ahead…
Looking forward to it!
