Sustainability Week

Climate Fresk gamifies climate change learning, aiming to educate participants and inspire them to take action. The workshop is based on a 42-card game that explores innovative ways to engage and empower others to take climate action. 

Loughborough's canals are not only spaces supporting human wellbeing and connection with nature, but are also vital habitats to a range of wildlife. Give back to the Loughborough Canal through this volunteering session with the Canal & River Trust as we work together to revitalise Loughborough's canal banks. We'll be removing waste from the river banks, repairing stonework, cutting back overgrowth and removing graffiti, helping to restore these much-loved local spaces. 

In this interactive session, we'll develop our sustainability skills and explore how to apply our unique skillset, interests and experiences to enter a purpose-led green job and embed sustainability into our future career.

We'll develop sustainability skills that are desired by employers, like systems thinking, communication, and leadership. Altogether, we will identify how to enter an effective and fulfilling job in the green transition, contribute to a future we wish to see, and gain a certificate to showcase these skills to future employers.

To take part in the Book Swap, you just need to bring along a book or two to swap. If you bring more than two, we will donate some of the books to charity and to Pilkington Library.

In this interactive workshop, we’ll explore how climate change affects people and communities differently and why this matters for building a fairer, more sustainable future. Through discussion and activities, we’ll look at how factors like race, gender and social background can influence who is most impacted and how we can take action for climate justice.

Please note: We'll touch on sensitive topics such as colonialism, racism and discrimination, so some discussions may be challenging.
