Introduction to Beekeeping

Thousands of tonnes of good camping equipment, clothes and other materials are going to be dumped after Leeds Festival. We're planning to do something about it to help both the environment and those in desperate need of it. A new group SolAIDarity (well an off shoot of ATC and other groups) has formed to go to festivals and tat down stuff and redistribute
it to various good causes - in particular to the migrants in Calais.

Hi,
A bunch of us are currently in the process of setting up an autonomous social centre in Leeds that we thought could be beneficial to your group. The plan is to buy a building that will provide free or very cheap meeting, workshop and creative spaces, a venue for socialising and to put on fundraisers, a cheap community cafe and some office space for supportive groups, alongside loads of other ideas in the pipeline.

Come come, with plants, seeds, tools and ideas to turn Leeds forgotten spaces into beautiful growing places. Plants and tools provided but if you have anything youd like to plant bring them along.

While there are already several transnational networks in existence such as Climate Justice Action and Climate Justice Now!, we feel it is time to come together as a local community and talk about what taking action for climate justice might mean in Leeds. The first meeting will be at the Common Place social centre, Wharf Street, Leeds at 7pm on Wednesday the 23rd of June.

The next Leeds Permaculture Network Social will be on Tuesday 29th June at the Common Place,
Leeds city centre, from 6.30pm (workshop starts 7.15pm)
