Invitation to a Meeting with Friends of the Earth Director - Wednesday 18th June - 7.30pm -at Salusbury School

Schools Run on Sun

Friends of the Earth's new campaign to help schools install solar panels.

We want our children to grow up in a world where renewable energy is completely normal. Our Schools Run on Sun campaign aims to make that happen.

It has a simple premise; “Every school that wants solar, should have it”, and an ambitious aim – to put us on the path to clean energy in every street and every town across the UK.

We urgently need more clean energy to help tackle climate change, and schools are a great place to start. They have big roofs that can create lots of lovely solar energy, saving the average school around £8,000 a year on energy bills.

Help us make this happen in Brent schools.

Invitation to a Meeting with Friends of the Earth Director - Wednesday 18th June - 7.30pm -at Salusbury School

On Wednesday evening, 18th June, Andy Atkins, Executive Director of Friends of the Earth, is coming to Brent to give a talk on -

"2064:  Our Planet in 50 Years' Time – Ravaged Disaster or Eco Dream World? It's Time to Decide."

He will talk about the risks that lie ahead, and what we need to do to get the future we all want. There will be time for discussion and the opportunity to meet Andy and the members of Brent Friends of the Earth.

We will provide information about our activities, and will be launching a campaign to get solar panels on schools in Brent, as part of Friends of the Earth's new campaign Schools Run on Sun.

The event is taking place at Salusbury Primary School, Salusbury Road, NW6 6RG - not far from Queen's Park Station. Light refreshments will be available, and all are welcome. It will start at 7.30 pm. It is a free event.

A flyer is also available on our website
