Sustainability

What are we about? 

Our society is all about making sustainability enjoyable, fun and motivating. 

We aim to be a non-judgemental space where creative ways to be sustainable in our daily lives can be explored through nuanced and intersectional discussions. 

We are passionate about approaching sustainability from the perspective that there is no one right way and we all have things we can learn from eachother. We are all still learning and trying to do what we can! 

What do we plan to do? 

All of our events and activities would have sustainability at their heart. We plan to hold clothes swapping events where members can bring in preloved clothing and receive a token for each item that they bring in they can then exchange this token for another piece that a fellow members has brought to swap. We also hope to engage with the local council to organise park clean ups as a society to give back to the local community. 

Other events would include crafting activities using recycled materials and open discussions on how to be more sustainable in our daily lives.  

We are also always open to suggestions and discussing what people would be interested in seeing the society engage in! 

Where are we located?

We are located at FCH and plan to meet Mondays around 5pm weekly or fortnightly depending on room availability and timetables. 

Memberships
