More about our impact
The environment
Many participants were surprised and pleased to discover initiatives and groups with which they could get involved. Our stall holders, such as Ribble Rivers Trust, reported interest from potential volunteers.
The local economy
We began to explore how we can develop solutions and initiatives locally.Stephen Sykesfrom East Lancs Chamber was a member of our Panel of Positivity speaking about the contribution local businesses can make.
Volunteering, jobs & education
We were able to disseminate information about volunteering opportunities on the day.
Arts, culture & heritage
The whole day was designed to open up imaginative responses to the climate and nature emergencies. Participants sketched, wrote and spoke creatively about the Ribble Valleyof 2030
Activity, health and leisure
The day stressed the power of individuals to organise in local interest groups to be active agents of change in their neighbourhoods. We heard about playground construction, tree planting, community gardening schemes etc. which all required hands on physical activity and mental well-being from working outdoors.
