The Ramsgate Society and Ramsgate Town Council are very pleased to be holding a Climate Action Day for Ramsgate residents. The purpose of the day is to give an opportunity for residents to share their views and to learn how we can all play a part in the mitigation of our climate crisis. It will be a positive and powerful day with many ideas for change that participants can apply in their everyday lives. We are delighted that Dr. Chris Newman, a local environmental activist and Dr. Hannah Scott, TDC’s Climate Officer will be leading presentations and discussions in the morning. We will participate in Take The Jump, leading us to 6 simple things we can do to make an impact on climate change.

The afternoon will be a 3 hour Climate Fresk session, facilitated by Dr. Chris Newman and Phil Shotton, a local green activist and a member of The Ramsgate Society Commitee.

Fresk is an exhilarating group activity helping people, whether or not they have any science background, to understand the fundamentals of climate change.  The day will end with a focused discussion on positive ways forward. Lunch has been arranged for all participants at Flavours by Kumar, just down the road from Radford House. A fine Indian cuisine offering special vegetarian and vegan choices for our Climate Change Day. This day is being offered to all Ramsgate residents so please make an early booking on Eventbrite.

The cost is £9.00 and includes a Kumar lunch and all handouts. Please bring a water bottle for the day. Free tap water available.  Click here to go to Eventbrite to purchase a ticket Climate Action Day

A special plea. DO NOT BOOK unless you are absolutely certain that you can attend. The group work sessions need a full complement of participants to work successfully. If you have booked and are unable to attend please let The Ramsgate Society know well in advance. We anticipate a waiting list to participate in this day.

We very much look forward to seeing you all at Ramsgate’s first Climate Action Day.
