They will be guiding our thoughts, goals and actions throughout the course. Using this hub, you will find all the resources you need. Remember to stay respectful, honest and enthusiastic!

Hopefully, you can now use what we have gained throughout the past six weeks to share your enthusiasm for sustainable behaviour and actions.
