We have run an AGM as a public meeting, several outreach events including an "Earth Day Eco-Fair" at the Hepworth Gallery, and street stalls such as at With Banners Held High, Better Buses campagn stalls, etc, as well as our recent Community Wealth Building conference. Engagement has been good this year!
