SUMMARY:Making room for swifts
DESCRIPTION:Would summer be the same without swift ‘screaming parties’ as they fly overhead? Surely this is something that would be truly missed if we lost these amazing birds that are now listed as a red data book species. \nThrough this online presentation\, Caroline Spinks\, Norwich Swift Network\, will give us an insight into these birds and talk about how we can help to look after swifts in Norfolk. \nThese activities are being run as part of the Norfolk Churchyard Conservation Scheme which was established in 1981 and is run by Norfolk Wildlife Trust in collaboration with the Diocese of Norwich. These sessions have been designed to support churches wishing to manage their churchyards for both people and wildlife. These activities are FREE. \nBooking essential – through Eventbrite at norfolkwildlifetrust.org.uk/whats-on \nFor further information visit norfolkwildlifetrust.org.uk\nor email churchyards@norfolkwildlifetrust.org.uk

SUMMARY:Eco Church Forum – understanding and demystifying food choices
DESCRIPTION:This will be our first in-person Eco Church Forum for anyone on an eco journey in their church community. \nThe aim is to inform\, equip and inspire us to think through and approach the sections of the A Rocha UK Eco Church survey that relate to food choices. We are aware of the complexities of a global food system that ensures that most of those with the least resources (in the UK) resort to cheaper\, ultra-processed food. Recent research highlighted Norfolk as actually having higher than average rates of malnutrition – mostly in our elderly population\, but also in some children. There is a perception\, and a reality that the LOAF principles highlighted in the A Rocha survey would be very hard to achieve by many in these lower-income communities and indeed\, by many of our churches who provide food for their local communities. \nThe chair of our Environment Working Group\, the Revd David Longe will chair a panel discussion with three participants from Norfolk and Suffolk: Peter Emmrich on global food security\, the Revd Leon Collyer on regenerative farming and Anna Sweeting on healthy eating on a budget. \nWe’ll be inviting open discussion and questions. Any practical\, encouraging examples you can bring to the discussion would be helpful! \nYou can now join us online via this Zoom link: https://dioceseofnorwich-org.zoom.us/j/83767657935?pwd=NkZjSmluc2oxOFJlaUIwbXlkcWtlQT09  \n Meeting ID: 837 6765 7935 \nPasscode: 868512 \nWe’ll start with refreshments at 6:30pm to begin the discussion at 7:00pm.
