Hello all,
Please see below for info about a talk at Bristol Sparks (old Marks and Sparks shop) in town on Sat, 06/07/24.
Mooch Cow love,
Becs x


My name is David Symes. We met a few years ago on Portland in Dorset, when you brought down the Easton Cowboys and we had that amazing weekend of football, music, discussions and entertainment. Steve Rudall (Convoy Cabaret) connected us both.

 

I work for Mencap and am supporting an amazing campaigner called Beth Richards in Bristol. Beth is a person with learning disabilities.

 

Beth and I are running a workshop/drop-in session in Bristol on the 6th of July to talk about the environment and plastic pollution.

 

I wondered if you would send/forward on the invites to your friends, colleagues, and activists in Bristol please.

 

Thank you and best wishes,

 

Dave

Subject: Plastic Pollution Conversation and Film Launch Bristol 6th of July 2024

Hello,

 

My name is David Symes, and I am an activism coach for Mencap.

 

  • Invite to our film launch and conversation

 

On behalf of Beth Richards (Bristol Campaigner) I would like to invite you to a ‘drop-in’ film launch of ‘PLASTIC POLICE’. Beth is a passionate campaigner and learning disability advocate.

There is an Easy Read poster and invite attached. Please feel free to invite people you feel would be interested in solving the environmental issue of plastic pollution.

  

  • Where and when is it

 

The drop-in sessions will be in Bristol on the 6th of July 2024 at the SPARKS Centre, 78 Broadmead, Bristol BS1 3DS.

 

Conversations on plastic pollution, the environment and Beth’s powerful film will happen between 11.30am and 5.30pm.

Please drop in at any time to share your experiences and concerns.

 

  • What do we want to achieve

 

The day is about raising awareness of the impact of plastic pollution, understanding what is already happening in Bristol and starting to explore how we can work more collaboratively.

 

 

We look forward to seeing you on the 6th of July.

 

 

Best wishes,

 

Dave
