Totnes and Area group is starting its considerations about how to join in. It could be big or small depending on what people are prepared to do and it begins with personal conversation at the next Big Meet Up. Details below.

 
 
 
Next Big Meetup - please come -
we're all crew and we need all of us!

                     Tuesday 1st February 2022, 6.30 - 8.30pm
 
The Grove School with zoom alongside. Please park sensitively to local residents.  Postcode of the school is TQ9 5ED
 
To enable as many as possible to feel safe to meet, please take a test; wear a mask and bring your own refreshments - thank you for your care.
 
 
We'll be sharing our gut feelings about the XR UK Strategy 2022 and asking ourselves:
What makes our hearts sink?      What makes our hearts sing?         What would support us?
And how we would love to engage with all of this. The conversation might also expand out to other strategies we're aware of.
 
At the following meetup (date and venue tbc), we'll move the discussion on to how our local group might effectively and coherently work to a common purpose in 2022.
 
To get the most out of this coming together, as a minimum, please check out the first 2 links.  If you want to dip in deeper, please engage with the other links to enrich our discussion.  
As part of the maturing process of XR, there are now many strands to consider as we find our way in the months and years ahead.  Let's find our own rhythm with all of this information and reach out for support if we're feeling overwhelmed.

Ongoing  actions

                         Time for New Beginnings.
Totnes and area XR Social Justice Group needs new members to be able to continue.

Prior to the pandemic we had an active and committed group. We explored issues of concern regarding disablity, ethnic identity and race, and lack of equal access to resources by women and people experiencing poverty and discrimination.
We worked on developing our own awareness and policies with the aim of encouraging Totnes XR to adopt them throughout its structure.
We are extremely keen to continue with this precious work and are looking for members to join us to form a new group.

If you are interested in participating, please get in touch with Rahelly.
 

The Community and Outreach Circle have a planning meeting 1:30 to 3:30 pm on Thursday 3rd February to discuss various ideas for Outreach in 2022.  If you would like to attend or suggest ideas, please contact us at: TAAOutreachCommunityGroup@protonmail.com


PLEASE CAN YOU HELP?
Totnes & Area XR needs funds for venue hire, making banners, printing leaflets, bits of useful equipment etc.  Please could you make a donation (and a monthly standing order is even better!) to our Triodos account as follows:
