People's Emergency Briefing Screening at MAC Birmingham

National Emergency Briefing Screening and Community Discussion

The Midlands Arts Centre (MAC), Birmingham, will host a special screening of the People’s Emergency Briefing on Sunday 7 June at 3pm. The film brings together nine leading UK scientists and experts to present the latest evidence on climate and nature, and to explore what these changes mean for daily life in the UK, including extreme weather, food security, health and the cost of living.

From the National Emergency Briefing held in Westminster, the film includes contributions from Chris Packham, Deborah Meaden and voices from across the UK. After the screening, there will be a short open discussion reflecting on what the issues mean for our local communities and how we might respond.

A space for prayer and reflection

Following the event, the Columbans will host an informal time of prayer and reflection for those who wish to respond spiritually to the themes raised. If you would like to attend this gathering, please email James Trewby at [email protected] to register your interest (you will still need to book your ticket separately).

Encouraging wider participation

We encourage parishioners to explore the PEB screening map to see whether there are other screenings taking place nearby, and we warmly invite parishes, schools and community groups to consider hosting a screening of their own as part of ongoing care for creation and social mission (please note the film is not recommended for uncer 16s).

Booking information

Tickets for the MAC screening are offered on a Pay What You Choose basis. Further details and booking options can be found on the MAC Birmingham website.
