‘Who Will Save Us?’ generated a lot of interest from the public, schools and other
children’s groups, including great interest in the ‘Special Package for Schools and
other Children’s Groups’). The overall event was a great success, with many
people visiting to see the wide variety of environmentally active organisations/

production. There was also plenty of entertainment for all the family including
music, story telling and tours of the giant wind turbines.

Work In Progress

´Who Will Save Us?´ is being promoted/sold via many charities, e.g. WWF-UK on-line and catalogue 2008, Oxfam education via events, newsletters, on-line and accepted for the Oxfam Catalogue for Schools 2009, Friends of the Earth on-line, Sustrans on-line, Eden Project, Centre for Alternative Technology, the Science Museum and the National Marine Aquarium. Also, book sales are growing steadily via our website, independent retail outlets, catalogues and national wholesalers. Some libraries are now stocking the book. In addition, it has been requested as a competition prize by, e.g. the Forest Stewardship Council, The Wildlife Trusts, I Count, Girlguiding UK and Devon Libraries. Interest from overseas is now developing.

There have been a number of positive articles and reviews, e.g. The Ecologist - June 08, Primary Science - March 08, The Geographical Association magazine - summer 08, London Cyclist magazine - Dec 07/Jan 08, Education Otherwise - Dec 07, Christian Ecology Link.

Nationally, we have attended numerous events, meetings and conferences, e.g. Eco-Schools and the Geographical Association, all creating great links and interest. There are many more of these due, including talks, book signings, readings and school visits.

Primary and secondary schools in various parts of the country are taking part in ‘The Who Will Save Us? Children's and Young People's Project’, with truly inspirational work! Communications with other schools are developing rapidly. The book and/or project are being promoted via school visits, talks, web sites, newsletters, mailings etc of many organizations, e.g. London Environmental Education Forum (LEEF), Brigit Strawbridge - The Big Green Idea, South West Learning for Sustainability Coalition, Sustainability and Environmental Education (SEEd) and The Diocese of Exeter.

Devon County Council and Torbay Council have supplied one book to each of their primary and secondary schools. The project is being introduced to these schools through various means, either by the councils themselves or Global Action Plan. Somerset County Council are starting to provide books for some of their schools and introduce the project to them too. Nationally, other councils are creating awareness of the book and project.
