About

Our climate is changing, in Bristol and beyond. From summer heatwaves to winter floods and disrupted supply chains, the impacts of climate change on business operations are already being felt and will only intensify.

On 6 October, Bristol Climate & Nature Partnership, supported by the West of England Combined Authority, is hosting a gathering to explore what our region’s climate will look like in the near and longer term, and what we can do about it together. 

Across communities, businesses and the public sector, we will create space to think collectively about how to increase our resilience and help our region thrive in a changing world.

We will be joined by speaker West of England Mayor Helen Godwin, plus community leaders, resilience experts and voices from businesses, communities and the public sector.

Alongside expert speakers and panel discussions, the morning will include interactive breakout sessions tailored for businesses and community organisations, a creative performance and space to connect over lunch.
