Free environmental event aims to create a climate for wellbeing

People are being invited to a free environmental event to help create a climate for wellbeing.

The event has been organised by Community Action Groups Devon (CAG) – who are supported by Exeter City Council – and takes place at Cullompton Community Centre on Saturday 11 November.

Everyone is welcome to attend and there will be a chance to get involved in a wide range of activities and workshops, plus some great food freshly prepared by ReRooted.

Organisers CAG Devon say the day will bring opportunities for inspiration, celebration and networking.

CAG Devon’s SkillShare23 theme is ‘Creating a climate for wellbeing’, recognising that volunteering for local environmental projects and climate action can have a hugely positive impact on individual and community wellbeing.

The organisation said: “We’re covering a spectrum of topics including: reduce, repair and reuse – gleaning – connecting with nature – reducing single-use plastics – pollinator projects and setting one up – working through the arts to create climate action – rivers, citizen science and community connections. 

“There’s a chance to get handy and contribute to the Mossy Carpet project, to practise your visible mending skills, and to plot and plan your next steps.  And of course there’s cake! There really is something for everyone!”

CAG Devon is project is managed by Resource Futures and funded by Devon County Council, with their goal to support and empower community groups to act towards a more sustainable future.
