What If...
15.4.20 — 16:30 We were excited to welcome Rob Hopkins, the founder of the Transition Network, to speak about the power of imagination and give us all the chance to imagine the future we would like to see by answering the question, What if......?     After a fantastic session with Rob Hopkins we held the second of our launch events where the public could get involved. This event in October gave us the chance to discuss how Bude can respond to the changing world we live in. We asked how the residents of Bude should respond to the climate crisis? What impact had the Coronavirus pandemic had on our local priorities? How could we live healthy, happy and meaningful lives in the face of these interconnected challenges?
