Green Drinks

Chester Green Drinks

CHESTER Green Drinks formed in September 2009 and now has more than 70 individuals registered, representing local authorities, businesses, NGOs, charities, environmental consultancies and many others, all linked by a common interest in the environment and related issues.

We meet approximately every 6-8 weeks, usually with a specific topic or theme in mind as a conversation starter. If you live or work in Chester or the surrounding area, why not come along to our next event...

Join us for our next event, when we’ll reflect on Green Drinks in Chester one year on… what's changed locally re: the environment/sustainability agenda?

We are meeting on Tuesday 7th September from 6.30pm at the Old Custom House Inn, Watergate Street (Chester, CH1 2LB http://www.oldecustomhouseinnpub.co.uk/). Let us know you’re coming and we’ll look out for you, or look for the Chester Green Drinks signs.

Thanks to everyone who turned out in the drizzle for a great summer (!) walk, with our excellent guide Paul Hyde. Paul kindly passed on useful links and resources for joining scheduled tours or exploring more on your own:
