Otesha East
We’ve been on a mission to spread the word of environmental and social change through Norfolk, one person’s choices at a time (whilst having as much fun as possible, of course).
And now we need you!
If you are a young(ish) person living in East Anglia interested in sustainable and environmental change in your community get in touch! We need lots of ideas for our future projects- whether you're into street theatre, playing games, cycling or customising clothes.
For more info, your ideas or to find out about future meetings please email us: norwich@otesha.org.uk

Hjinks on the High Street: 2009 in review
2009 was a busy year for Otesha East!
In May 2009 the FIRST Norwich and Norfolk Sustainable living festival took place. We were there to wow the good people of Norwich with an energy-packed comedy theatre piece about sustainable life choices. Giggles all round with lots of (sometimes unwanted) audience participation!
We also visited several youth clubs with our infamous ethical fashion workshop- wallets made from tetra-paks were definitely a big hit!
In September, we entertained lots of (big) kids with the Banana Chain game, showcasing the joys of Fairtrade at the Zero-Carbon Caravan event in Norwic.
Finally, in October we mixed craft with activism (aptly named craftivism) with a group of students at the University of East Anglia.
