Portsmouth Vegan Festival,
21st September 2024
Our stall at Portsmouth Vegan Festival 🌱
We did a survey of what people would like to see from a local Climate Emergency Centre.
Interesting and refreshing conversations with people of different ages and varying levels of awareness around climate change.
Did you know that switching to a plant based option could cut that dish's:
Climate impact 🌏 by 50%
Land use 🌾 by 74%
Water use 💧 by 50%
Impact on wildlife 🦉 by 50%
and of course, animal exploitation by 100%!

It's been nearly a month since we hosted our International Women's Day event, and we've counted up the donations and reflected on feedback. 📝
A lot of people were keen to have more time to network with different groups so we are hosting a follow up event which will be focussed on getting everyone connected and sharing the wonderful projects happening in our city! 💬
We would love your feedback, and the dates you would be available 🗣

Building Update!
We have been offered a temporary building to use on a monthly basis!
This will be our home until we find something more permanent (likely next year). The space we have been offered is an empty unit in a central Portsmouth shopping centre 👀
We’ll be sharing with Social Enterprise Link who have been incredible at supporting us through our journey
We are collecting your views on how the centre will operate and the things you’d like to see.
