People with an interest in green and environmental issues from across the county are meeting up again next month in Shrewsbury. The next event is at Cromwells Hotel in Shrewsbury at 8pm on Wednesday the 2^nd of July.

A broad spectrum of people have been coming to the Green Drinks events, from businesses, local councils, charities and community groups. The relaxed networking atmosphere is great and the local real ale on tap is an added bonus. All are welcome for lively chat and debate.

The Green Drinks events run every first Wednesday of the month at 8.00pm at Cromwell’s Hotel on Dogpole in Shrewsbury. If you want to set up a similar scheme in your area, come along to have a chat with us.

Green Drinks is part of an international social network and has a global website to support it: www.greendrinks.org. To sign up for a monthly email reminder for the meetings, contact nancy@mea.org.uk.

The sessions are being hosted by Marches Energy Agency (MEA), with backing from SEtNEt. They aim to help build networks between people working for or with an interest in the environment.

The scheme is being supported by SEtNEt, Shropshire Environmental Technologies Network. SEtNEt was formed to encourage networking and development in the Environmental field. More details about the group can be found at www.setnetwork.co.uk
