Eco Hub: Sue Hampton gets a green light

‘It is a place where people can talk, listen and share.’

‘We have been delighted by the turnout.’

I’m a member of Berkhamsted Meeting. I’m also the founder of the local branch of Extinction Rebellion, and it was after XR’s ‘The Big One’ march last year – supported by Quakers in Britain – that I called a meeting of local groups that might plough common ground together. The outcome was a small working group of women from Parents For Future, Transition Town Berkhamsted and XR Dacorum (me) which began looking for a way forward in the town. Soon we became committed to the idea of an Eco Hub meeting free of charge in our Meeting house one Sunday afternoon each month. It’s not a Quaker initiative as such but has the full support of Meeting.
