We regularly have stalls at local nature, climate-change and sustainability events, and give talks at a range of campaigning/academic/community platforms.  A brief outline of past and upcoming events, and key meetings in 2024 is given below. Further details of events in previous years are provided on our events and other blog pages, a selection of which are profiled below. Do come by and chat with us if you're around, and pick up some of our information sheets on how to go pesticide free in your school, community, business or home. And please get in touch if you'd like us to speak at, or hold an information stall at an event you're organising.
