A special community screening: The People’s Emergency Briefing

Saturday 24th October

15:00 - 17:00

What’s happening with climate and nature, and what does it mean for everyday life in the UK?

The film is based on the National Emergency Briefing in Westminster (featured by ITV, Channel 4 and The Times) with appearances from Chris Packham, Deborah Meaden, and a range of voices from across the UK.

After the film there will be an open discussion about what it means for our community and what we can do locally.

Organised by members of Wealden Green Party in collaboration with Wild Wadhurst and Wadhurst Park. Local councillors and the Wealden MP will also be invited to attend.
