About this Event

Join the Living Lab Mid-Winter Potluck as we share free food, explore the story of the current 'Resilience in a Changing Climate' project so far, and look ahead to exciting things to come.
We will launch the Friendly Living Fund, the first micro-grant scheme designed by students for students, in collaboration with the YSJ Students' Union.
Were you one of over 100 students who visited our Repair Fair last month? Following its success, we will host another smaller offering at the Potluck for items including clothing and backpacks.
If you are interested in climate change, social justice and how to get involved in change-making in various ways we hope you will join us!

Due to high demand the Bike Dr will be back on campus from 10am to 12pm ststioned at the bike racks between Fountains, Foss and Skell.
