Saturday 15 June
Chess for Climate
It’s back – Chess for Climate! This was a hugely successful event last year and we’re pleased to host it again. Leslie will play all-comers simultaneously on multiple chess boards. Whatever your age or playing level, this is your chance to pit your wits against an ex-British Under 21s Chess Champion!
This will be a relaxed, fun, encouraging, non-competitive event where Leslie will talk with people afterwards about how the game went.
Leslie says: “Chess is a prediction game, seeing ahead to what might happen. That’s the link to climate, where I want people to use their chess brains to predict and head off the problem. Chess is also a mind sport and wonderful exercise for the brain. Come along and enjoy the workout!”
At the board, Leslie will offer cards with chess advice one side and climate-busting suggestions on the other. Anyone interested can also view a post-game video, expanding on what the cards say.
The event is FREE and will be hosted at Tring Town Council Chambers, 61 High Street, Tring HP23 4AB.
