About this Event

Join the Wealden Climate Change and Nature Community Network Launch!

Wealden District Council, Community Action East Sussex and Wealden Food Partnership have joined forces to launch this new network. Aimed any any group or local business with an interest in sustainability (not just those primarily working in this field), the network aims to be a focal point for information and good practice.

The day will include a mix of short presentations about inspiring local projects; how to practical workshops; consultation on how the network should operate and a market place.

We warmly welcome any local group interested in how they can contribute to the sustainability of the planet and the natural diversity of Wealden to join us.
