Climate Emergency: First Citizens Steering Group Meeting
2019-05-24 19:30 - 21:00 | Buckfastleigh Town Hall
In March, Buckfastleigh passed a motion declaring a Climate Emergency and vowing to do whatever is in its power to make the town of Buckfastleigh carbon neutral by 2030.
We decided to set up a working group to recommend to council and carry out actions that will do three things…
• Enable council to achieve this goal within its own activities
• Inform, promote, support encourage and resource our local community to implement actions to achieve this goal
• Promote and campaign for action and legislation at all levels of government locally, nationally and beyond to achieve this goal.
We can’t do this on our own and we will need to get government on-side to have any hope of achieving it, but by committing to the process in this proposal we can make a start and show the way.
This meeting is for those who are interested in being a part of this group.
Cllr. Andy Stokes, Chair & Mayor

Buckfastleigh SOUP
2019-06-07 18:00 - 20:30 | Buckfastleigh Town Hall
Following the tasty success of the first ever Buckfastleigh SOUP community fundraising event in October 2018, Buckfastleigh Town Council and Teignbridge CVS have organised the next event to support small groups and individuals with new community ideas.
Local people come together, donate for a bowl of soup and two tokens to vote, and listen to four local individuals or small groups pitch their project idea.
Pitchers each have the floor for up to five minutes and must rely on their passion, creativity and speaking abilities to win over the audience – no giveaways or PowerPoint.
With the presentations over, soup is served – time to think, chat with others, and mull over the ideas before choosing your favourites.
The winning pitches each get to take home between them the money taken at the door and their share of local donations. They get to use it to fund their plans, with the promise they will come back to report on their progress at the next SOUP event.
This time we will have a rolling registration for those wishing to pitch – remember you do not need to have a constitution to pitch just a great idea benefitting the community!
Those wishing to pitch should write a paragraph about their idea/project and send it to anja@teigncvs.org.uk Please include: the name of the project; contact details (including an email address and telephone number); a brief project summary including how you will spend the money and the desired outcomes and any practical or technical help you hope to get from your community.
