Autumn Lecture The Soil Association - an overview
Thursday 21st of October 2010 (7.30pm)
Molly Conisbee is Director of Campaigns and Communications for the Soil Association, a membership charity promoting sustainable food and farming, food justice, health and education. Before working at the Soil Association she was Head of Campaigns for the New Economics Foundation (NEF), an independent environmental 'think and do tank', and also worked in Westminster, in a variety of public affairs roles.
Molly spent her early childhood in the Clarendon Park area and I first met her when she was 6 weeks old at an environmental group meeting. Early exposure to such events was obviously not wasted, as shown by her career choices.
After the lecture tea and cake will be served as usual. If you feel like baking a cake please let Elizabeth know.
