Staying Grounded: How to travel without flying

What if the journey really could be as rewarding as the destination? Author, adventurer and Flight Free UK director Anna Hughes shares stories from her recent train journey to Slovenia, exploring how and why she chooses to travel without flying.
Aviation accounts for around 8% of the UK's greenhouse gas emissions, making our travel choices an important part of tackling the climate crisis. But reducing our impact doesn't have to mean giving up adventure! Combining personal travel stories, practical tips and climate insights, Anna introduces the work of Flight Free UK and explores how choosing alternatives to flying is one meaningful way we can all make a difference - while discovering new places, enjoying the journey and having fun along the way.
We are also thrilled to welcome back Sunday Assembly legend Kay Scorah for more poetic reflections.
Sunday Assembly London is your regular and reliable stop for a welcoming, accessible and inspiring Sunday community, where you can hear talks and poetry, sing songs and make new friends.
Stay after for tea, biscuits, and chat in the Backyard Comedy Club. Then join us for a local meal, picnic, or a drink and board games at the pub.
