Envirochamps Conference 22nd March 2011

The Envirochamps Conference recognised and promoted the work of Wirral’s recently formed group of Envirochamp volunteers.

120 delegates attended this one day event to learn more and share ideas with each other.

Speakers on the day covered topics relating to Wirral’s Parks and Open Spaces, Rights of Way Network, Carbon Reduction and Waste & Recycling.

A guest speaker from the group who established and now manage the wonderful work at ‘Incredible Edible Todmorden’ attended to explain how they have created a sustainable environment of which they are justifiably proud.

The beauty of Incredible Edible is its simplicity; it's about communities using currently unproductive land and spaces to grow their own produce to feed their own communities. Projects are owned by local people working together to improve our local environment.

Envirochamps had the opportunity to ask questions and find out more, inspiring several groups to put themsleves forward for pilot Incredible Edible projects in Wirral.
