We'll be convening in the George Hotel lounge at 7pm on Wed 6th Sept, anyone interested in the plastics issue is very welcome.

We're increasingly drowning in a real sea of plastic, therefore I am very much focused on action and hope to box off various manageable projects, so it'll be great if folk are prepared to put their hands up and willing to take on small tasks within a broader campaign.
