NET ZERO IN VOLUNTEERING AND AGM EVENT

We invite you to join us online for an interactive event discussing ways in which volunteering can support our Net Zero ambitions.

We are thrilled to welcome the Cabinet Secretary for Social Justice, Shirley-Anne Somerville MSP who will open proceedings, and we’re also delighted to have internationally renowned speaker, Martin J Cowling, who will run an interactive session exploring Net Zero in Volunteering. The UK has set the most ambitious target to reduce carbon emissions by 2030.

Volunteering plays a crucial role in driving change, influencing policy, raising awareness on a broader scale, and promoting sustainable practices. We’ll discuss how volunteering can support our Net Zero ambition of a reduction of more than half of our impact on the environment in just seven years, as well as the next step actions we can all take.

We will also cover the formal business of our AGM, to which all are welcome.
