Nature Neighbourhoods Project
As you know, the Nature Neighbourhoods Project is a response to the call from the People's Plan for Nature to ensure community involvement at neighbourhood level in protecting and renewing nature. Building on the Plan and following on from the Walk & Talk February, we've planned a series of events based on six of the key themes; Vision, Calls to Action, Vision and Leadership, Regulation and Implementation, Food Systems and Local Access to Nature.
The events will be held in the Nature Neighbourhood area, Tufnell Park between May and November. each will be facilitated by experts in each of the themes. The events will be an opportunity to explore the themes, what they could mean for a Tufnell Park Nature Neighbourhood and collectively build solutions.
We'd love you to come and take part.
