Of course, if Tuesday is not possible for any volunteer there are other opportunities for Food Bank projects on other days.

Stantonbury Ecumenical Partnership aiming to be involved in city wide climate change campaign

The Stantonbury Ecumenical Partnership is appealing for people who are passionate about climate change to become involved in CitizenMK’s climate change group.

It has been decided that the campaign will be to promote retro fitting insulation into private rentals. The SEP and CitizenMK needs either private landlords or private renters who would come to our meeting to talk about how this would help them and the obstacles in their way.

If you can help can you contact Mary Kennedy at kennedmd@aol.com. The next meeting is at the Quaker Centre on February at 6pm. Please let Mary know if you are going.
