Each month the Leeds Craftivists meet on Zoom to learn about a different element of Climate Change. We have a speaker and do a creative action. On Monday 7th June, 7.30-9pm we are learning about and discussing biodiversity. You can register to join us here.
We will be hearing from Catherine Mercer of the Yorkshire Dales Millenium Trust. She will be sharing her experience of encouraging biodiversity in Yorkshire. As well we will be doing something creative to encourage biodiversity.

We are keeping one to put near where we live, one to our local councillor and if you have time one to Anna for our big art piece in the Autumn.
