Dr Jonathan Foyle recently harnessed Conservation teaching with media experience in scripting and presenting a short film to assist the Brunel Swing Bridge Group in Bristol, which is engaged in rescuing an overlooked and decaying masterpiece by Isambard Kingdom Brunel.

The Group is led by the career engineer and Bath visiting external lecturer, Geoff Wallis. Recently, the campaign received a £1 million donation from an individual philanthropist that covers half of its fundraising target. This film was made to support fundraising momentum by raising broader public appreciation for this marvel of engineering heritage and restoring it for public use for recreation as well as historic interest.
