Climate Ready Tayside has announced its next Community Resilience Gathering for community groups from across Tayside.

Being held separately in-person and online, it’s an opportunity for groups to come together and explore practical ways to increase community resilience in response to climate change and extreme weather.
The event will focus on the theme of communication and how to share clear, timely communications with your community before and during extreme weather.

Climate Ready Tayside - https://orlo.uk/U8NmM - is looking to develop communication training for community groups, and a session will be held at the event to better understand requirements for this.

The in-person event takes place on Tuesday 28 April from 5.15pm to 7.30pm at ScrapAntics Community Centre, Wellgate Centre, Dundee. Hot food will be provided. Details here - https://orlo.uk/HMpMJ

The online event takes place on Wednesday 6 May from 6pm to 7.30pm via Eventbrite. Details here - https://orlo.uk/qN2tL

Whether you are a formal community resilience group, an individual wanting to set up a community resilience group, or another group thinking about how to protect the place you live from climate impacts such as flooding or heatwaves - all are welcome.
