Community panel: Climate change and public health

Together with the Enfield Racial Equality Council, the Enfield Climate Action Forum (EnCaf) will be running two Community Panels/Hubs to discuss how public health will be affected by climate change.

We will be addressing some key issues but more importantly we want to hear from those who attend what they think the main issues are and what can be done about them by our communities as well as the Health and Local Authorities.

We would welcome you attending so let us know if you would like to come all day or just for one of the sessions.

You can just drop in on the day but you can also sign up and we can send you more information.
