Geo-East

Geo-East was set up in 2008 using EU funds from the European Landscape Convention via Natural England and attracted grants that were given to societies undertaking geo-conservation projects in the region. Geo-East then strengthened its role as a forum for amateur geological societies active in the East of England by organising seminars, field excursions and three conferences. All meetings were very well attended. Geo-East helped build good reciprocal relations between the county groups. There is now less need for such a forum and  Geo-East no longer (after 2024) continues as an independent organisation, although the partner organisations continue to liaise for mutual benefit when needed.

Additional information from the original Geo-East website, describing the region’s geodiversity, will gradually be added to this webpage.
