The Friends of the Earth Chester & District group is set up to agree local campaigns and projects suitable for our region, to support the campaigns of Friends of the Earth National and to lobby MPs and Councillors to support these campaigns.
We are an enthusiastic and passionate group who seek to bring innovative and impactful ways to reduce our environmental impact and create thriving, sustainable communities.
The Repair Cafe is a key local project that we have identified, aligning to Chester West and Cheshire's own direction of travel in helping to divert waste away from landfill and improve circular economies in the local area. We have researched and spoken to others that operate repair cafes in the North West and beyond and through our conversations to date feel strongly this is an innitiative our local communities would support.
