About the event

From thriving community gardens and green spaces to ingenious rain capture ideas, Norwich is already home to brilliant nature and climate resilience projects – but we are just at the start of where we could be as a city in a changing climate.

We'll take a quick tour of what's happening around the city, then hand things over to you for a casual open discussion. Bring your ideas, big or small, and let's see what new practical solutions we can dream up together to make Norwich even wilder. Everyone leaves with at least one thing to go away and try!

This talk will be taking place in 'The Crypt' at St Andrews Hall as part of the Wild by Design event . Please arrive 15 minutes before the talk begins and speak to someone at the entrance.
