The Environment and Public Affairs Sub-committee (E&PA) gets involved in all sorts of issues involving the world we live in – including sustainability, conservation, agriculture, fisheries, etc. This sub-committee also arranges talks, workshops, days out and demos, including guided farm and town walks, and helps us learn more about environmental issues.
E&PA works in partnership with other organisations, including The Eden Project, Clean Cornwall, the Cornish Plastic Pollution Coalition and Cornwall Wildlife Trust.
E&PA also helps to promote in Cornwall the national campaigns that the NFWI develops following the annual members’ vote on resolutions, and encourages local WIs to get involved.
