Thank you for everyone for coming to our Campaigns Social last week!!! Was a lovely evening and great to see so many people keen to make a lasting change in our wonderful city. For everyone that didn’t come, it’s only up from here!
Get involved on the next one. We’re meeting again on the 25th at Kiki’s Cafe, 63a Holland Road, Hove, BN3 1BA.
From hearing everything on the night and looking through all the ideas we discussed last week and it’s clear we’re going to achieve some great things.
Some ideas from the night were as follows:
- Lobbying the council to install attractive recycling bins along the seafront
- Working with local businesses and the council in a variety of ways to stop single use plastics – for example straws and plastic cups at music events,
- Campaigns around engine idling to help protect our lungs
- Working towards a clean-air zone in Brighton and Hove
- Many many more
Now is the time for next steps. We’ll be getting together on the 25th of April, to discuss everyone’s ideas and take them to the next stage. It would be great if we were all singing from the same sheet so if you could think about ideas within the following it would be great:
For Air Pollution or Plastics what would the following look like?
- Actions to raise awareness of the issues
- Goals winnable in the short-term
- Long Term Goals
More information to follow. Looking forward to working together!
