Maidenhead & District Friends of the Earth

In 1999 Maidenhead and District Friends of the Earth (MADFOE) set up two initiatives in Maidenhead, the Walking School Bus to Courthouse School and, in response to a public meeting in May, Maidenhead Farmers' Market, which celebrates ten years in 2009.

We support some of the national FOE campaigns, most recently the Big Ask campaign which resulted in the Climate Change Act 2008 binding the country to achieve 80% reduction in carbon emissions by 2050. 

The current campaign is to get the government to give greater support to all forms of  Renewable Energy alternatives.  At present only wind seems to be receiving much attention. 

We are a small but active group and new members are always welcome. Our regular monthly meetings are held on the third Tuesday of the month at Friends House, Maidenhead. Contact Membership Secretary, Cynthia Payman Tel: 01628 773775 or Group Co-ordinator, Ruth Kinns on 01628 782651.
