There is a network for 1010 in Stoke at http://groups.google.com/group/1010stoke-on-trent
I too think the movement is well suited to Stoke. We retain a lot of connections with the green space within the towns, allotments are still popular and we have lots of good walks along the greenways, parks and canals. We also have a history of technological innovation, especially when you look at how ceramics were exported around the world as table ware and electrical components through the centuries.
It’s nice to see our ‘lack of development’ being viewed in positive terms for once

Hi Jan, thanks for your interest. I’m not aware of any network meetings, but I haven’t been following it since the initial launch. I would hope there is a network of some kind to keep track of progress, but I imagine you’d have to have an ear to the local media to find it.

Very interested in thisInitiative – hoping to develop complimentary programmes of work. Any networking meetings coming up or other information would be gratefully recieved.
I believe Stoke could lead the rest of the country in this initiative – so much brownfield land with little prospects of immediate development.
Thanks fo ryour article.

First of many towns I hope. With kind of public support surely we should be pushing for a much stronger climate agreement in Copenhagen in December!

Wow! That’s really surprising, but it’s made my day.
