Climate and Nature Symposium for Councillors in South Hams

About this event

All South Hams parish, town, district, and county councillors are invited to this interactive event hosted by Sustainable South Hams and South Hams District Council. The day has been designed following conversations with councillors from across the district.

Don't miss this opportunity to:

  • Connect with other councillors who would like to support and catalyse more action on climate and nature in their communities
  • Discover what support is available to you and leave armed with a wealth of practical ideas and resource links for your community
  • Learn about great examples of action in other South Hams Parishes 
  • Take inspiration from speakers taking practical grassroots community action
  • Explore key themes in workshop topics chosen from our research with councillors
  • Meet representatives from a range of organisations that can support you
  • Inform us about what ongoing support would be helpful to you

The program of workshops and speakers is still being developed but will include many ways to encourage and support climate and nature action in your community. 

If you would like to exhibit or speak at this event, please email ruthlw@sussh.com rather than booking a ticket.
