About this event
The CAN Summit is open to all residents, communities, and organisations who want Stockport to be a climate and nature-friendly place to live and work. From toddler craft sessions and storytime beneath the trees to hands-on workshops, repair cafés, growing projects, and retrofitting your home, there’s something for everyone.
Be inspired by talks from people across the borough, designed to spark imagination and encourage creative thinking. Come along, get involved, and help shape a more nature and climate-friendly Stockport – together.
