Lincoln UK Global Doughnut Days 2025 (Past)

Tuesday 14 October:  Event Link

Lincolns in person Global Doughnut Days (GDD) will begin with Looking at the Doughnut Through an Earth Based Lens  with co-hosts Debbie Mace & co-host Helen Fisher on behalf of Climate Hope Lincoln .  We will consider Doughnut Economics (DE) through an Earth Based Lens and what this could 'vision' for our place here in the City of Lincoln, and potentially wider Lincolnshire which is known as the 'Bread Basket' of England.  Hannah Dale, Wrendale Designs & Homeware, Wild Wrendale Rewilding & author of ‘A Wilding Year’ will be with us for morning.  After lunch (included in your ticket) you can join your hosts and Kerry Gibson Project Fashion Fixed CIC, Maureen O’ Callaghan Beyond Money Education & Training CIC, Associate Professor Georgiana Els Lincolnshire’s Inner Development Goals Ambassador. 

Climate Hope Lincoln hopes to encourage us to embrace an Earth Based Lens as part of the Doughnut Economics framework for regenerative change and Our Collective Wellbeing,

Unfortunately Wednesday & Thursday events have been postponed until 2026.

Friday 17 October: Event Link

Climate Hope Lincoln are pleased to announce Paul Chibeba from Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust will be joining us to explore Access to Nature & Community Engagement.  Paul’s role within the Trust is to lead on Public Engagement & Communications & we are pleased he’s able to join Rebekah Gibbins for a meaningful final day of GDD Lincoln 2025.  

Rebekah helped plan this year’s BioBlitz at the University of Lincoln & has recently completed her master’s degree in Biodiversity, Conservation and Nature Recovery.  Rebekah is passionate about Citizen Science and engaging with local schools, exploring Nature positive themes with the young people and empowering them to be the difference in their community.

These are two important topics that bring the week to a close as we consider our next steps going forward. 
Nature is important for our wellbeing but we’ll also consider access to Nature from the perspective of hedgehogs, swallows and our domestic friends too, ‘how can we help Nature’s Recovery now'  and what can we do as a caring community in Lincoln to support the Local Nature Recovery Strategy, which is due to have a draft proposal for public consultation soon.

Climate Hope Lincoln would like to thank the Doughnut Economics Action Lab (DEAL) for funding to enable our GDD to go ahead.  

Any funds or donations we receive from ticket sales will enable us to hold more community events linked to DE in 2026.  If there are any difficulties with costs & would like to attend, please contact Debbie through the link on the website.
