How can we protect our homes\, schools\, businesses and sporting communities? And how can local government play its part? \nBuilding on our last Big Green Conversation at The Kenton\, this event focuses on practical\, positive action – from steps towards flood and pollution prevention\, to improving preparedness for increasingly extreme weather. The panel will look at the growing risk of flash flooding – which can strike anywhere with little or no warning\, often away from the riverside. They’ll identify the local areas where it’s most likely to occur\, and share ways to strengthen resilience across Henley’s homes\, schools and businesses.\nPanellists include: \n\nDr Jess Neumann – University of Reading – expert in pollution\, flooding and community preparedness.\nGreg Searle MBE – Olympic rowing champion & Royal Regatta Steward leading in sustainability\nJonathan Hobbs – Royal Waterman to His Majesty King Charles\, and fifth generation owner of Hobbs of Henley\nDr Pete Sudbury – Oxfordshire Flooding Taskforce\, Oxfordshire County Council\n\nBehaviour change facilitator and local resident\, Kate Lloyd\, will chair the panel. \nOur experts will explore the impact on rowing of increased ‘red board’ days\, when the river flows fast and may be in flood\, disrupting year round training in Henley where the sport is central to the town’s identity. They will also examine how flooding and pollution affect local business continuity\, and what steps can be taken to improve business resilience to shocks like flooding. \nDon’t miss out – book your tickets now\nJoin us for an evening of insight and inspiration\, with plenty of time for Q&A\, sharing ideas and discovering how\, together\, we can protect what we love and build a safer\, stronger future for Henley. \nThis event is part of Greener Henley’s Big Green Conversation series which brings important issues centre-stage within our community\, empowering everyone to explore and understand the problems we are facing\, as well as how we can address them. This is our second Big Green Conversation in partnership with the Kenton Theatre. \nBook tickets\n

SUMMARY:Weathering the Storm: Rethinking Business for Climate Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Do you know how climate change could disrupt your business—and what steps you can take to protect it?\nMany organisations still aren’t fully prepared. According to the latest ONS Business Insights Survey (Dec 2025)\, only 23% of UK businesses say they’re concerned about the impact of climate change—its lowest level since 2022—highlighting just how far behind we are in adapting and building resilience. \nThe Greener Henley Local Business Group is hosting this event to help local businesses understand the real risks\, learn practical ways to strengthen resilience\, and feel motivated to take proactive action by creating robust Business Resilience Plans. The aim is to equip Henley’s business community with hands‑on strategies to prepare for climate‑related disruptions\, inspire leadership in reducing carbon footprints\, and foster collaboration across our local network. \nThe evening will begin with real‑world stories from businesses that have already faced climate‑driven challenges\, setting the scene for why action matters now. This will be followed by a panel discussion led by Amy Clarke\, Co‑Founder of Tribe Impact Capital and a prominent green campaigner.\nIn the second half of the event\, you’ll join guided round‑table sessions to start shaping your own Business Resilience Plan—leaving with practical next steps tailored to your organisation. \nJoin us to protect your business\, strengthen our community\, and take meaningful action for a more resilient future. \nSincere thanks to Mercers Solicitors and O’Brien Real Estate for supporting this event

SUMMARY:Schools Environmental Science Challenge exhibition
DESCRIPTION:May 13th -19th we have the Old Fire Station Gallery to exhibit all the fantastic entries for this year’s Schools Environmental Science Challenge: “Stop! Look! Listen! Noticing Nature.” There will be more details to come but suffice to say it’s a bit different this year – a Photography Competition is included\, as well as children’s poems entered in the Great Big Green Week Poetry Competition AND we are opening to the public! \nWe are looking for a few more volunteers as Exhibition sitters (2 hours with a friend being inspired by our young people’s talent in an historic building – what could be nicer?) Also we want some very special helpers on the 13th for setting up – and the 19th for dismantling the display. If you think this is something you would like to do to support Greener Henley\, please email greenerhenley@gmail.com and include your phone number.
