In 2022 Harrison was asked to be a lead presenter for NatureWatch Cornwall, covering episodes exploring the conservation status of the Cornish Chough and the UKs only venomous snake, the Common Adder. This is a highly competitive position, where episodes are viewed by BBC producers, University staff and public communities.

Harrison spent some time ‘chatting’ with the British Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2023, Charlie Page. The discussion focussed on photography and videography in the jungle, alongside wider challenges that present themselves in the depths of the amazon.
