A warm welcome to HEAT...

The Hadleigh Environmental Action Team (HEAT) was formed in autumn 2019 in response to the climate emergency. We are an informal group of local people committed to working together to take practical community action to limit environmental damage and act on climate change. The climate emergency can seem overwhelming however we believe that action groups like HEAT are the local solution to a global crisis. Our ethos is very much about sharing ideas and joining together to develop practical, community solutions to make Hadleigh a more climate-friendly town. We also want to work together to spread awareness of changes we can make as individuals to reduce our carbon footprint. To date we have held three meetings with numbers and interest increasing each time. We have lots of ideas, so please keep reading our progress reports in this paper to see what we are up to. Our first project has been to secure a double allotment on the Gallows Hill allotments site which we intend to develop as a group into a community allotment project. We hope to turn this rather unloved space into a vibrant nature friendly allotment and social space, growing organic vegetables, fruit and herbs, which can be enjoyed by all those who volunteer and also to donate fresh produce to the local foodbank who support people in need in Hadleigh. We have already had a second-hand greenhouse donated to the project and some of our volunteers have cleared rubbish from the site and had a general tidy up. We will continue with this work over the winter ready for planting in the spring. If anyone is interested in getting involved with this particular project in a big or small way, we need lots of helping hands: please do get in touch. On the 7th December HEAT will be appearing at the Hadleigh Christmas event, to launch Hadleigh’s Pledge for the Planet 2020 Campaign. There will be a sculpture made out of recycled and found materials to delight you and you will be invited to sign a ledger specially designed for Hadleigh. If you are interested in joining HEAT or just coming along to see what it’s all about we would be delighted to welcome you at our next meeting at the Royal British Legion in George Street at 7pm on Wednesday 18th December.
