You can take this pledge\, which will notify your sitting MP that you have committed to voting for nature and climate.\nYou can also use the community pulse as a tool for deep persuasive conversations and ask people to pledge to vote for nature and climate at stalls and events.\nShare the pledge and the community pulse tool with your networks.\n\nFor those wishing to join us after the meeting for a chat with like-minded people\, head to Elgins\, 51 – 53 Elgin Boulevard\, Wodonga. \nRSVP as soon as possible to help with catering. \nWe look forward to seeing you soon!  And\, yes\, we’ll have some refreshments for those attending Hyphen.\n \nIMPORTANT:  Please email us at acf.awr@gmail.com to let us know how you would like to attend.  If you are attending in person we can cater for you.  If you are attending online\, we’ll send the link to join. \nRegards\, \nACF-AWR Team
