Malwen - community consultation
We are in the process of setting up a rural, queer, intentional community and would love to hear what is important to you to help us better understand the needs of the communities we intend to serve. Some of the information we are gathering will be used as evidence in future funding applications, to help prove the need for rural, queer communities such as Malwen to exist. Your responses will be completely anonymous and your personal data will not be shared with any third parties. If you have not already, please check out our website to get a better understanding of where the project is currently at. www.malwen.cymru

For some examples of OPD practices and lifestyles, please refer to their website, https://www.oneplanetcouncil.org.uk/
