Why get involved, how to do it and what's the point?
7pm for 7.30 start to 9.30+, £donation. Brighton and Hove's public ethics
forum, all very welcome. The Old Market, Upper Market St, Hove, BN3 1AS
Speakers:
Libby Brooks - deputy editor of The Guardian's Comment Is Free, author of 'The
Story of Childhood: growing up in modern Britain'
Leo Murray, Plane Stupid - direct action campaigners against aviation expansion
Amy Kennedy - Brighton and Hove City Councillor, who took campaign for Plastic
Bag Free Brighton to official council policy
Sue Baumgardt - Green Party Animal Rights Spokesperson, and direct action
campaigner
This month we want to be entertained by stories from inspiring people, and ask:
How do we make our voices heard? Do you fancy some action? Not sure what to do?
Given up? Not convinced? Couldn't it be a bit more fun?
And we want to know what gets our guests out of bed in the morning and want to
get involved, when surely it would be easier not to bother, and why they have
chosen to participate in the way that they do.
We want to know what's more important: vegetable patch, fence-cutters or ballot
box? What drives you, drives you mad or turns you off?
See you there?
Relaxed, sociable, informative, fun. Bar will be open before, during and after
the event.
