Events
Like other organisations, we are running in-person events and continuing to hold online events as we have found them to be an opportunity to make new friends and contacts from the UK and beyond. It is great to meet with and feel part of a worldwide group of people who love and cherish our planet and all her creatures.

Spring Equinox Celebration Monday 24th March 2025
7pm online
The Spring Equinox, or Ostara, is also called the Vernal Equinox and has long been celebrated as a time of renewal and rebirth. It marks the first astronomical day of spring in the northern hemisphere.At the moment of the spring equinox, the sun passes over the equator and continues northwards, on the autumnal equinox the sun crosses over the equator and continues its southward declination.
We celebrate the renewed life of the Earth that comes with the Spring. It is a solar festival, when the length of the day and the night are equal. Maybe bring some thing that epitomises spring for you, and wear bright colours if you wish.
Spring Dawn Walk 
Sunday 30th March 2025 6pm
If you are near East London join us for our Spring Dawn walk and hoping to see the sunrise at 6.30 am-ish. Meet at Wanstead Park 6.00am, where Wanstead Park Avenue meets Northumberland Avenue. We’ll have breakfast together afterwards. For more info call or text Hilary 07957318501
ANAM CARA
A gathering of souls who sense they are on a journey; for companionship and support.
We begin the session with a check-in and the creation of sacred space, (with meditation, a reading or silence). Then, maybe with the help of some questions, we will share from our hearts and witness the sharing of others. This is a time to slow down and truly connect in authenticity and growing self awareness.
Evenings: Mondays (not bank holidays) 7 pm on Zoom
Daytime: We meet at 10am on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday morning of each month, our next meetings are February 19th at 10 am, then March 5th ’25 at 10am.
(For more information & zoom details, please contact Hilary Norton hnorton(at)greenspirit.org.uk )

Our Conversation CAFÉs on zoom
The next Conversation Cafes are at 7pm Friday 7th March 2025, 10am Monday April 14th, and 7pm on Tuesday May 13th
Jenny Joyce & Hilary Norton invite you to join our “Conversation Café” – a simple, hospitable, empathetic space where fears & uncertainties about our future and the complexities of the world can be safely expressed. World events impact us all in many ways, and it can be hard to share our thoughts and feelings. This is an advice-free zone where all feelings are welcome! We don’t have the answers, but sharing helps us to build some resilience to deal with inevitable changes. This is an advice-free zone where all feelings are welcome!
Feel free to bring a cuppa, biscuits, etc.
