Lorna works for Semble (https://semble.org/) (formerly Project Dirt), a platform that brings together businesses and community projects to make change happen from the grassroots up, and a long time partner of Outdoor Classroom Day. Lorna believes in the power of storytelling to inspire real change; and spends her days devising wonderful ways to celebrate community action. 

In this episode, Martin and Lorna discuss the work that Semble are doing with kids, communities and climate action, through two of their major campaigns: Backyard Nature and Outdoor Classroom Day. Lorna also talks about an exciting webinar Semble are hosting during London Climate Action Week.
