Nottingham weekend for young people on climate emergency

Climate Emergency banner

FaithJustice, the CSJP Sisters and Friends in Nottingham are hosting a weekend for young people: The Climate Emergency: What Next? reflecting on the Climate Emergency from Friday 10 - Sunday 12 June, or just Saturday 11th June, 9am-9pm. For those aged 18-40

The latest IPCC reports makes it very clear that we are in an emergency situation. Climate change and ecological destruction are happening and are expected to get much worse. This event is for anyone who is concerned about the climate emergency, and who is looking for a community of both action and support.

The Saturday morning will be a time of reflection and retreat focusing on climate grief and enormity of the challenges facing us. The afternoon will be a space for learning from each other, hearing stories, and reflecting and sharing about the way forward.

This event is rooted in the Christian tradition. But we would like to extend a welcome to everyone who is concerned about the future wherever you are in terms of faith, or in terms of previous involvement with action. We are aware that there are not going to be any easy answers to this challenge so we want to build community as widely and diversely as we are able. This is a space for both the experienced activist and the nervous newcomer, for those with ideas and those who have no idea what to do, everyone is welcome.
Simple accommodation and food will be provided from Friday to Sunday, join us for the whole weekend.

Cost: Free (Donations welcome). Suggested donation: £20 fully waged, £10 low waged, free for unwaged.

Accommodation details: Most people will be sleeping on the floor, you will need to bring a sleeping bag and floor mat. If you have a disability and need different accommodation please note this when you register and we will get in touch.
