CA-WN Climate Cafe
Wednesday 9 April 8:00pm - 9:00pm (online)
Climate Cafes offer a safe space to share how you are feeling about climate change. There is no pressure to join in, no commitment to attend subsequent events, just conversation with like-minded people.
These monthly events are open to anyone and we are often joined by people from other parts of the UK and even other parts of the world.

CA-WN Monthly Public Meeting
Thursday 17 April 7:45pm - 9:00pm (online)
We will not have a guest speaker this month, instead we are going to try something completely new and use the meeting to carry out a climate adaptation risk workshop. More information about how this will work will be issued nearer the time. We would really welcome active participation in this exercise.
