Yep. The LCS is doing it's own thing and won't be donating to Camp as it's
focusing on smaller, local projects. I think therefore that the vegan cafe
would be the best idea.

>> Direct Action Training sessions in the afternoon.
>> Talks/ Discussions based on the different themes of Climate Camp this year

>>  If we create the space I'm sure it'll work fantastically...
>>  What do people think?

>>    To start you off - is it a spin off of our pop up camp in the city?
