People’s Emergency Briefing Screenings

HGN is organising a screening of the People’s Emergency Briefing

Saturday 27th June 12 noon – 2pm ~ BOOK NOW! 

The current heatwave brings into sharp focus the need for action on the climate crisis and related biodiversity crisis. We cannot solve the one without the other. Temperatures will have dropped a bit by Saturday and the screening will take place in an air-conditioned room – but this merely addresses the symptoms, not the cause. Join HGN for the film, followed by a chance to discuss the impacts on Herefordshire with contributions from people with local expertise and those involved in local initiatives. We will consider what is and can be done locally to address the issues. Full details are on the Eventbrite page.

There is still time to get a ticket : Click here to book your place for this screening upstairs in The Gallery Space at De Koffie Pot, Hereford. Tickets are free.
