Twelve people (and a few mini-people!) met to discuss the idea of forming a local group to learn about existing community activities in Forest Hall and to swap ideas about potential future activities. Examples include expanding green spaces, tree planting, litter picking and localised sources of energy. There would be scope to share knowledge and experience (eg of green energy choices), and skills (eg gardening, coppicing) and to make links with other community groups in Newcastle and North Tyneside. We agreed to pilot a monthly meeting to act as a regular opportunity for developing these ideas and for information sharing.
