Dear Members,
What unsettling times we find ourselves in. I’m sure I speak for a number of us when I say, three months of lockdown is becoming rather tedious. Certainly here in the UK, the future is both uncertain and unpredictable. And the shocking number of fatalities from Covid-19 has placed a very dark shadow across our planet.
Life, as we now know it, is extremely difficult and uncertain, not just on a national level, but global too. I understand you must be feeling worried and fearful of how things will turn out but I want you to know that R&S is here to support you through these challenging times.
And, I still have hope. Hope for our planet, hope for mankind, hope for the future and hope for the next generation. And on that note, I am proud to present you with the latest edition of our exciting newsletter, which proves, that even with a global pandemic and subsequent lockdown, there is every reason to hope, and no stopping our resilient and resourceful Roots & Shoots members!
Dr Jane Goodall has shared some wonderful messages of hope and her unshaken belief in a brighter future, because when things are in crisis, hope has the power to transform.
Our special guide has been specifically tailored towards Roots & Shoots activities that can be undertaken during this difficult period of isolation. For me personally, nature has always been a wonderful escape and indeed a healing tool in difficult times and I take every opportunity to embrace it whenever I can.
Stay safe and well, support loved ones, neighbours and your local communities.
We are with you all the way!
Tara Golshan
Executive Director, Education
