Mawnan WI members joined up with Mawnan Brownies as part of a campaign to raise awareness of climate change.

Both groups made green hearts to symbolise saving the things we love. The children learned about endangered species and changes in weather patterns and ladies from the WI helped them to stick, sew and create hearts and a collage of places they like to visit and animals they like to see.

On Valentine’s Day they hung their hearts on the tree in the centre of the village and then took heart-shaped biscuits up to the Memorial Hall for the older members of the community who were enjoying the Tuesday Lunch Club. They were thrilled to have a visit from the youngsters and thanked them for their thoughtfulness and concern for our environment.
