Hi guys, Ollie again
don't forget, if you are a signed up member of the greenbox, we'll pay for the costs of doing a course with CELT in Clare for the May bank holiday, as well as organise (but not fund!) a bus.
The setting is b-e-a-utiful, an 80 acre broadleaf forest by a lake between kilaloo and tuamgrainey in Clare. And it'll be great fun! Just sign up for a course and we'll reimburse you.

events nationally of interest
Here are a couple of uncoming events in the region and beyond which may be of interest to you. It is fast becoming clear that energy is a hot topic, and become hotter (pardon the pun!). Enviro-solutions have an event to inform you of the latest thinking on this. They are also hosting an event on law and the environment.
The good people at Sustainable Ireland have another of their convergence events in Dublin. Always interesting, but this time they are also holding a seminar on sustainable tourism.
Over in Mayo, feile na tuaithe is coming up. Very busy, good fun and a lovely setting.
