Screening of the People Emergency Briefing on Climate Change, Vision for Newhaven's future, planning and acting for the community.

You are invited to Future Proofing Newhaven.

We are facing unprecedented challenges and facing them together is better than trying to do it individually. This event is a chance to learn, discuss and work together as a community to create a better future for our town. If you have been worried about climate change or want to learn more about it and find ways to become more resilient in the face of it, this event is for you.

Be ready for an packed afternoon including food and refreshments.

Part 2: Vision for Newhaven's future, action planning and taking for the community from 2.50pm, for people of all ages (children need to be accompanied by an adult).

During this workshop, we will be sharing information about Climate Change and how it will impact the UK and our area in particular.
