ROHAN O'NEILL-STEVENS speaking on
"City building: Creating stronger communities

Our urban environment shapes our lives in many unseen ways, both positive and negative.

Where? Café Yaza, Montgomery Square, Nelson,
When? Wednesday 26 July. Yaza opens for dining/drinks 6.00pm.
Conversation 7.30-9.30pm

Treat yourself and support our partners Yaza Café at the same time. Come early and try their new 'Spirited Conversations' menu!
