Building on June’s conversation around Scaling Earth Resources, the November Change Makers’ Meeting introduced a series of community composting projects currently in development by Sustainable South Hams, in partnership with Devon Community Composting Network and South Hams District Council.
Our new Change Makers Gatherings got off to a strong start with an online session discussing South Hams District Council’s new draft Corporate Strategy for Climate & Nature.
We had a wonderful time this year with our focus on rivers, including the Rivers Assembly back in Spring. As we shift our focus towards our upcoming 2024 Assembly on Education and Young People, we wanted to give you a quick update on what has come out of our rivers work and where there are opportunities going forward.
Our goal is to create and restore habitats within the Yealm Catchment, working with professional partners such as Westcountry Rivers Trust, Devon Wildlife Trust, Woodland Trust, AONB, Dartmoor Parks Authority, National Trust.
Community orchard harvest and Apple Day, including apple pressing. We also hold a Wassail in January and story telling in spring.
