As you will be aware, the world is facing twin climate and biodiversity emergencies, which are inextricably linked. Nature is in serious decline internationally and nationally, with the UK being one of the most nature depleted countries in the world.

Horsforth Climate Action would therefore like to invite members of Horsforth and Cookridge U3A, as one of the many groups who care about nature locally, to a Climate Conversation event to launch aNature Recovery Plan for Horsforth and to discuss how it can be implemented.

The event is being held on Thursday 10th July at Leeds Trinity University Conference Suite (AG33/AG32) 7pm -9pm. The venue is accessible, parking is free there in the evening and there is cycle parking available.

We have attached a draft outline plan, based on the Community Nature Recovery Plan toolkit produced by Hyde Park Source and Wildlife Friendly Otley (also attached).

If you are not able to attend on 10th July but are interested in being involved, please let me know.
