'COP26: One Year On...'
In the run up to COP27 in Sharm El Sheik, RSGS with The Open University in Scotland held the 'COP26: One Year On...' Conference to understand what signs of positive change have begun to take root since COP26, nationally and internationally, and what more needs to be done. The conference heard from 18 speakers from multiple sectors within the climate arena, and allowed key stakeholders fighting climate change to discuss, debate and prioritise the actions, campaigns, policies and innovations that need to be accelerated to 'keep 1.5 alive'.

In October, Perth City Leadership Forum hosted a lunch for a group of local charities, organisations and individuals to discuss the cost of living crisis in Perth. The event was a chance to hear more from the frontline organisations that are dealing with this issue every day, to hear ideas of how to reach more children and families in poverty, and to explore what support organisations needed in order to scale up their efforts, tackle the crisis, and build collaboration.

Volunteer Thank You
We were delighted to host a coffee morning last week with all of our Fair Maid’s House Volunteers to say thank you for their hard work throughout the year. Volunteers were invited for tea, coffee and cake and had the chance to reflect on our first open-season since the start of lockdown.

We'll be joined by Keith Anderson, Chief Executive of Scottish Power; Claire Mack, Chief Executive of Scottish Renewables; Phillip Raines, Directorate of Energy and Climate Change at Scottish Government and Matthew Hannon, Professor of Sustainable Energy Business and Policy at Strathclyde Business School.
