Looking forward to chairing the steering group meeting. The power of residents is amazing. Anne Marie emailed me and we had an inspiring meeting where she set out her vision. Now together we are holding the 1st meeting on the 11th Sept @Civiccentre. #Caversham residents doing it!
Great to see that Caversham is considering striving for #plasticfree status, driven by its residents. Something to consider for #rdguk as a whole in our #ClimateChange strategy? Let us know!
Yesterday our #blackhistorymonth celebrations saw us #celebratingoursisters, with a great talk from @AyoCaversham. It generated a lively debate and great way of acknowledging the achievements of black people in STEM and how best to encourage more diversity in this field.
