Climate Café® Brentwood

A community Climate place to Drink, Chat, Act

The Cafe takes place in the community hub at 7 Crown Street on the last Saturday of every month. All are welcome, of any age, to stay for as little or long as they like. The Cafe will usually run in two sessions, from 9.30-11am; then later from 12-1.30pm. But please check the website and our social channels (especially events on Facebook) for the most up to date details.

They run as a Bring Your Own Drink event due to numbers expected and limited catering facilities on site. But there are two nearby cafes – Hey Joe and Chantilly – happy to supply refreshments, as well as those on the High Street. Or you are always free to bring your own drinks and snacks from home!

The theme and make-up of Climate Café® Brentwood dates will vary – often just a free chat space, but sometimes featuring in-person or recorded climate presentations; and potentially information sessions on all kinds of topics, such as heat pumps, recycling, EVs, community energy. We’re very open to suggestions from visitors as to what they’d like to see at future Climate Café® Brentwood dates.

Background – Climate Café®

Climate Café® is a community movement that began in rural Scotland in 2015, now with sister Cafés all around the world – all affording an inclusive space where everyone is welcome to join the climate conversation and get involved. All the chat and any action is led by those who live, work and play in that community.

Katherine Anderson, Brentwood Climate Action’s Chair, said: “We’re delighted to be running Climate Café® Brentwood, a safe space to get together with people from across the community to Drink, Chat and Act on Climate.

“It’s free and open for all to attend, and will provide a positive and inspiring opportunity for the people of Brentwood to talk and listen about issues that matter to them, hopefully coming back on a monthly basis!”
