The National Emergency Briefing was a landmark event held in Westminster, where the UK's leading climate and nature scientists briefed over 1,200 politicians, business leaders, and public figures on the state of our climate and natural world, and what it means for our food, health, economy, and national security.

Now the message is coming to communities across the country and we're proud to be working with The North Devon & Torridge Climate Forum and other local organisations to coordinate and support screenings across northern Devon. We are part of 1,700 groups who plan to host screenings in their communities, each followed by a community conversation about how to respond.

People's Emergency Briefing film

A new, compelling 45-minute documentary captures the evidence presented at Westminster, making it accessible to everyone. It's designed to be watched together: neighbours, local leaders, and MPs in the same room, looking at the same evidence, and thinking about what comes next.

Following the film, there will be short, structured local discussions on what this means for our community, including implications for local preparedness, resilience and long-term planning. Most importantly it comes with an excellent opportunity to collectively step-up our understanding and turn it into the purposeful action that is needed.

This isn't a film designed to frighten or overwhelm. It's a call to be informed. And to act together.

An opportunity to be HOPEFUL and DO something amazing together?

Locally, there is already so much to be inspired by. Across our communities, local groups and organisations are doing brilliant work, from wildlife restoration and sustainable farming to renewable energy, community growing projects and more. After each screening, we hope you'll leave not just better informed, but connected to the people and projects that are already making a difference and ready to find your own way to get involved.

Whatever your interests, whatever your skills, there's a place for you.

Come along!

All screenings are free and open to everyone. Whether you're already passionate about the natural world or just curious to understand what's really going on, you're welcome. We need EVERYONE on this journey.
