À propos de cet audio

Our Future Hood is a series of shows produced by Portobello Radio to look at the ways community, council and social enterprises are working together in North Kensington to create a greener future for residents and at the same time saving some money and our bit of the planet. The shows look at issues like the zero waste kitchen, mindful gardening, better recycling and active travel with conversation, facts and tips. It is born out of the Notting Dale Future Neighbourhoods 2030 Project, supported by Mayor of London, which aims to develop a blueprint that can be replicated across London and the rest of the country.© 2024 Hygiène et mode de vie sain Nature et écologie Science Sciences sociales
