Connected Voice Networking Event - Wellbeing and the Environment

Join Connected Voice on 24th September for our next networking event with the theme of: Wellbeing and the Environment.

Voluntary sector organisations are all about promoting the health and happiness of people and communities. It's increasingly clear that taking care of the environment can have a significant impact on this. A healthy environment gives us clean air, water, and food, which are crucial for our physical health. Nature also provides places for fun and relaxation, which helps our mental health and reduces stress. By protecting the environment, we not only keep our planet safe but also improve our quality of life and ensure a healthier future for everyone.

The event will have presentations from: 

• Christine Wright, Outreach Worker from the Royal Horticulture Society 
• Karen Dobson from Scotswood Community Gardens
• Barbara Keating, artist working with Dingy Butterflies on projects such as Bensham Bees and Bensham Bites and with local universities  

The speakers have used the theme of the environment to improve the wellbeing of people in the community and will be sharing ideas and tips for low cost and no-cost activities.

Please note our Networking Events are for voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations serving Newcastle and/or Gateshead. They aim to:

• Showcase and celebrate good and innovative practice
