Lizzie Davies writes to advise us of her climate-emergency event planned for the Roman Baths on 8 March.
Moved by the climate-change related suffering in Australia, Lizzie has booked the Roman Baths and laid on a programme of prayer, poetry and music. Programme below.
More details here. Booking here (free, but donation of minimum £10 suggested). A number of Bath Quakers plan to attend.
The event is conceived and organised by the artist and poet Lizzie Davies, a former Bath Quakers attender.
