Sunday 22nd March 7:30pm. Film Showing: Switch

‘Switch’ explores how we are gradually shifting from coal and oil to the energies of tomorrow. Rather than advocate for how it should happen, the film travels the world to discover how it is most likely to happen. It focuses on practical realities and encourages a balanced understanding. Run time is 98 minutes.

The event will take place at St Mary’s Church, St Mary’s Road, Ealing W5 5RH. Entry is free, but we will ask for donations after the film to help us cover costs. After the screening, there will be an opportunity to discuss the film’s messages over refreshments.

Thank you to those of you who have already contributed ideas towards exploring the possibility of developing a community energy initiative in Ealing. There will be opportunities to learn more about this possibility at the ‘Switch’ event. Also, a follow-up meeting will be held in the next few days after the film showing, specifically for people interested in taking practical proposals forward.

MindFood is a community interest company that helps people to recover from mental health issues by  growing and selling food. Produce is sold into local communities – as well as our very own Edible Ealing veg box scheme.

The company is setting up a new sensory market garden in Ealing and has secured a new site at Cleverly Crescent, just north of Hangar Lane gyratory. They are looking for volunteers both to help set up the site, and ongoing. If you would like to help, please contact edharkness@mindfood.org.uk. More details at http://www.mindfood.org.uk

Building on the impact of the People’s Climate March last September, on March 7th 2015, the National Climate March will bring people together again to demand real change – enough to avoid climate chaos.  The march will start at Lincoln’s Inn Fields, with protesters gathering at 12:30pm. If you would like to join an Ealing Transition group, please come along to Ealing Broadway station for 11:30am. All welcome!
