Our Executive Director, Paul Vare writes:

Colleagues

A mission from the Heschel Centre for Sustainability, Tel Aviv, Israel (see below) are touring the UK at the moment and have asked to meet with members of the SW Coalition.

They will be passing through Bath on Tuesday 3rd July and the University has kindly agreed to provide a room for us to meet - all Coalition members are invited.

Room 1W 3.5 is booked on the campus from 11.15 to 1.05 and Prof. Bill Scott and I will be at the centrally located 'Claverton Rooms' coffee bar at 10.45am to await the arrival of participants.

Please drop me a line if you are able to join us and I will send more details to ensure that we meet up.

The report from our second seminar 'Seminar 2:  The new curriculum:  more or less sustainable?' can be accessed here. 
Please note the suggestions for filling up your MP's mailbag!  We look forward to hearing your thoughts.
