Calendar 03 November 2026 - 04 November 2026

Published on 15 July 2026

We’re excited to announce that our final RENEW Biodiversity Parliament event will be taking place this autumn!


03-04 November 2026 | In-person only

Sheepdrove Organic Farm & Green Events Venue, Lambourn, Berkshire

As RENEW draws to a close after a busy five years, we are excited to host our final Biodiversity Parliament event. This annual gathering brings together researchers, practitioners, and support staff in the RENEW community to connect, reflect, and drive change towards a fairer and greener future.

In our final project event, we will be sharing insights, strengthening connections, and collaboratively shaping what follows. This event is all about celebrating our collective successes over the past five years and building a lasting legacy for RENEW!

Expect two days of hands-on, engaging activity, including: reflections on RENEW’s aims and impact, inspiring provocations, thought-provoking sessions and workshops, a guided farm tour, and an interactive carousel of demonstrations and exhibits, all designed to spark ideas and create space for discussion and exchange.
